We are very interested in The Ambassadors project to develop a multi-lingual Down Syndrome Encyclopedia.

I logged into The Ambassadors magazine, and found it quite interesting. I enjoyed reading the series entitled, "Chris Burke and his friends: Defeating Down Syndrome". Individuals with DS receive excellent care in Singapore. Here is the email address of the Singapore Down Syndrome Society.(E-mail: nc0156@cyberway.com.sg)

Hi!  My name is Darryl Zufelt. My disability is a combination of things such as ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder), some mental retardation. I am 37 yrs old. My new wife does give me alot of support and acceptence and so does my medicine doctor and my ADD Couselor. I do not have Down Syndrome but I feel that I with my disabilities and the nice people that have Down Syndrome have a lot in common. Chris Burke is very encouraging to me.Does he have e-mail of his own or some way that i can contact him?  MY FAVORITE SHOW WAS WHEN CHRIS BURKE WAS ON "TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL", THAT ENCOURAGES ME MORE IN MY FAITH.

I enjoyed reading "Chris Burke and his friends: Defeating DS". Your project for establishing a DS multi-lingual encyclopedia has to be encouraged. Best wishes.

The story of Chris Burke with Down Syndrome and his accomplishments is very encouraging to parents of babies with DS. We are looking forward to the DS encyclopedia.

I have not read The Ambassadors fully, but  have gone through it. I liked everything I've read!!
1. I must congratulate you  on the editorial by Adel Iskandar, which was very professionally written.
2.  I liked the article: Iraq after the bombing: what next?  I read it fully and felt that it reflects what most people really feel. 3. I have gone over the article on Down Syndrome but must go back to read it in depth.
4. I liked the photo of the cats ( brotherhood) submitted by Dr Said Nasr. I stopped only to forward to you my feelings of admiration for all of your staff. Thanks for the magnificent website!

Thanks very much for the review of Ingrid Lehmann's book, Peacekeeping and Public Information.
David Green, Frank Cass Publishers

Would you be so kind as to inform about the address of the publisher of the work "PEACEKEEPING AND PUBLIC INFORMATION - Caught in the Crossfire" by Ingrid Lehmann, which was so splendidly reviewed on your website.

Keep up the good work. The website is wonderful. I wish you the best in your ongoing efforts and I would like to know more about The Ambassadors. I thought you'd like to see this site (http://www.lightshift.com/Vital/sbnp1.html). We're practicing "wa re so ku ka mi nare" prayers for world peace to prevail on earth (see photo). With best wishes in the coming millennium.

I am very thankful to you for I could find those pages in your magazine devoted to celebrate the national days of world countries as  my requirement is fulfilled through your magazine. But in Vol.1, Issues 1 & 2 July, August 1998,  I could only find the NAME and FLAG of the countries celebrating their national days during these months but not the DATES.I would be thankful if you could help me to in fulfilling my requirement. Thank you.
