<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi, Walt</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>You are correct about what you point out below,
especially the closing statement. It's a madhouse sometimes dealing with
under-developed areas. I did that quite a bit in past years in Africa and
S. America primarily and somewhat in Eastern Europe too. This was mostly
for various global missionary operations, etc. But these
endeavors were more ancillary activities to my primary market
activities which were industrial systems and OEM clients, such as
Motorola. That was when I ran the Eastern US distribution office for the
old Photocomm. I had one large client in Zaire [since re-named again to
the Congo] which had huge requirements for various medical power systems -
entire hospitals, over 200 remote clinics, nursing schools, staff housing,
etc. That was the ISROS Project [US AID/United Methodist Church - Global
Missions]. Even then there were highly unstable political/military
conditions preventing deployment of those system materials. I could have
gone there to "supervise" but we sent an engineer instead since I had my hands
full already running the regional distribution office. Good thing too
probably. My engineer was arrested as soon he deplaned by the military in
Zaire. For nearly a month he was held incommunicado for reasons we only
learned of later once the US Embassy got involved. On top of that, there
was the business of local armed brigands trying to heist the trucks while they
were struggling to make headway toward the remoter areas to make the necessary
materials dropoffs. This whole scenario went on for close to two
years. So, I have to tip my hat to someone like yourself who's
working under somewhat similar circumstances presumably. And, yes,
these people really need that stuff desperately. It's not a matter of
<EM>.. consumer discretionary spending ..</EM> for them. It's a
matter of life and death most times. Barring remedy, they are
cooked. Even more, UPS and Fed Ex won't be making convenient weekly
deliveries to them any time soon, if ever. They don't fancy making
deliveries in war zones anyway. Frankly, who could blame them? But
something resembling life must still go on, somehow. I have no idea how
they do it, truthfully. Naked perseverance is my best guess. It
seems a tale of two utterly differing worlds. I would suppose that in
these current days things are even more queer than ever. Assuming one
can even imagine that.</FONT></DIV>

style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'">Well, that might be
a good gesture in principle which I'd consider assuming times were better, and
different. But they aren't, yet should be. That's the sort of
thing technology might and should embrace in such turbulent times as these
especially. But it won't do so for that intended purpose I
suspect. The west is more concerned that the Afghan poppy fields are
continually well played in the so-called free market. And the black
market too. Then there is the big issue of who controls those critical
oil transport conduits. One also has to wonder how long a million solar
modules would withstand a thousand bomb blasts in that
current envirionment. I've never been there to assess the
possibilities. My former Russian wife was there, serving as a Russian
army officer in the 1980s, live-fire combat situations no less. It was
really ugly stuff. I could tell it had changed her deeply. She was
damaged in the heart. Still is I suspect. That's what that shit
does. The Russians are some real tough nuts, but you don't mess with the
Afghans. Several "empires" tried it over the centuries. They all
failed. Then again, try another approach to them - like solar
power. They might "buy it" because they could use a beneficial outlet
for their own better energies. In that sense Shahryar could truly see
his work rewarded meaningfully somehow. There you go, Obama.
Change the world constructively. I dare ya. Surprise me. But
I'd sooner count on people in the streets first. Enough of
politics. There's serious work to be done. Thank you, Mr.
Shahryar. I used to compete with you years ago. You were a
straight shooter. Even when I had to hide behind a rock, you had wicked
aim. We fought well. Go in peace.</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>

Shahryar passed away Sunday</SPAN><BR><SPAN class=apple-style-span>evening,
April 12, 2009. Mr. Shahryar was well known in the solar
industry</SPAN><BR><SPAN class=apple-style-span>as the successful founder of
Solec International, the first terrestrial</SPAN><BR><SPAN
class=apple-style-span>solar cell factory. The New Scientist magazine titled
him The Sun King and</SPAN><BR><SPAN class=apple-style-span>reported that he
"virtually invented solar power as a serious energy</SPAN><BR><SPAN

homeland, Afghanistan. In</SPAN><BR><SPAN class=apple-style-span>2002, the
former Afghan King Mohammad Zahir Shah asked Mr. Shahryar to</SPAN><BR><SPAN
class=apple-style-span>represent his homeland which he accepted to become
the first Afghan</SPAN><BR><SPAN class=apple-style-span>Ambassador to the
United States since 1978. His Excellency, Ambassador</SPAN><BR><SPAN
class=apple-style-span>Shahryar served pro bono and also invested much of
his own money in the</SPAN><BR><SPAN class=apple-style-span>embassy. After
serving as Ambassador, Mr. Shahryar returned to California
to</SPAN><BR><SPAN class=apple-style-span>start a new solar company, Sun
King Solar. The solar industry, Afghanistan,</SPAN><BR><SPAN

dearly. He is survived by</SPAN><BR><SPAN class=apple-style-span>his wife,
Hafizah, son, Alexander, and daughter, Jahan.</SPAN><BR><BR><BR><BR><SPAN
