Why I Love OLPC/Laptop.org

I have an absolute passion for communications and truly believe that these tools can have a miraculously positive impact on Quality of Life and Standard of Living -- if we brilliant humans can only figure out how to use the tools correctly.

And I truly believe that OLPC has figured out how to use the tools correctly.

And I welcome the opportunity to help in any way that I can.
