Ladies and Gentlemen: LINK TO ORG IS BAD …… SHOULD BE DOT COM. http://sustainableleadershipforum.com/

ALL CORPORATIONS CAN DONATE MILLIONS OF RETAIL DOLLARS WORTH OF GOODS TO THE U.S. NON PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS PROVIDED U.S. MILITARY OR BARGE COMPANIES WILL LOAD AND SHIP THE ITEMS TO PORT AU PRINCE FOR OFF LOADING…..REMEMBER INCOME TAX TIME IS COMING AND STOCKS OF CANS OF POP TOP FOODS, DRINKS, MILK, WATER, PLASTIC BARREL LINERS, BARRELS, SEAL TOPS FOR BARRELS AND EVEN SEALABLE 5 GALLON BUCKETS, CLOTHING, TENTS, CONCRETE, JUMP SUITS, HAND SOAPS, DECONTAMINATION PRODUCTS, WASHING MACHINES, DRYERS, SOLAR POWER GENERATORS, GAS GENERATORS, LIGHTS, SHOVELS, HAMMERS, PERSONAL SAFETY EQUIPMENT, CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT, LIFTING SLINGS EVEN BARGES THEMSELVES AND EQUIPMENT FOR DIGGING OR LIFTING CONTAMINATED BARRELS SUCH AS BACKHOE OR FORKLIFT ARE AVAILABLE FOR A FULL RETAIL TAX WRITE OFF. BLADDERS FOR GASOLINE OR WATER, SALT WATER PIPING AND PUSH TIGHT PIPING PLUS PUMPS TO PUSH SALT WATER FOR MILES ALONG WITH FITTINGS NECESSARY ARE ALL AVAILABLE FOR INSTANT DELIVERY

Thousands of Tents large and small, thousands upon thousands of 60 and 80 pound bags of concrete which only requires SEA WATER to mix same ….

Thousands of Jump Suits, rubber boots steel toed, safety helmets, pairs of weldor gauntlet gloves, protective eye wear and goggles, rain gear, FIRST AID BOXES, DISTILLED WATER EQUIPMENT, SPRAY HOSES, VIDEO AND AUDIO EQUIPMENT, LAPTOPS, INVERTERS, CIGARETTE LIGHTER PLUGS, CB RADIO’S WITH MAGNETIC MOUNT ANTENNA PRE TUNED SYSTEMS AND SPEAKERS…… ALL WILL BE DONATED ! RETAIL AMOUNT TAX WRITE OFF DONATIONS WILL CLEAR WAREHOUSES OF MATERIAL THE DONATION CORPORATION COULD NOT POSSIBLY SELL IN THESE TIMES !

Imagine the construction workers and students making up tent cities with special supported flooring using pressure treated lumber on cement blocks then add plywood flooring keeping everyone up above water collection areas with plastic wrapping the flooring and a tent around same with lighting perhaps LED all over the complex. Special CHAIN LINK FENCE keeping others out of the compound and LATRINES, FOOD TENTS, CLOTHES/BODY WASHING AREAS WITH SALT WATER BLADDERS AND LEACH FIELDS MADE TO HANDLE THE WATER EVAPORATION UPWARD. STUDENTS AND CONTRACTORS TRAINING X HOURS A DAY THEN ONCE COMPLETED GOING OUT INTO THE AREAS ASSIGNED TO START PUTTING UP TENT CITIES OFFERING THE SAME TO THE PUBLIC, SAFETY WITH GUARDS PATROLING THE COMPOUNDS LIKE WILL BE PATROLING THE TENT CITIES. MARKING ALL TENT AREAS AND TENTS INDIVIDUALLY WITH SPECIAL WHITE LETTERING STENCILS PLUS LISTING ALL WHO OCCUPY THE SAME TENTS ALL ACROSS HAITI AND GIVING GPS LOCATORS WITH ‘ SPOT’ TYPE GPS LOCATORS ALL PROVIDED TO THE PRESIDENT OF HAITI AND LAW ENFORCEMENT.

THE BIGGEST WORRY IS UPCOMING HURRICANE SEASON —- BUILD 6 FOOT OR 8 FOOT TALL CONCRETE REINFORCED WALLS ALL AROUND THE TENT AREA TO DEFLECT THE WINDS AND ONE NEED ONLY WORRY PERHAPS ABOUT A TORNADO.

FOR RETAIL TAX WRITEOFF FROM PRIVATE INDIVIDUALS, NON PROFIT OR GOVERNMENT AGENCIES TO ALL PEOPLE OR CORPORATIONS MAKING THE DONATIONS …….. H I N T !

GET THE MESSAGE TO FORMER PRESIDENT CLINTON AND BUSH THEN STAND BYE TO MOVE TONS AND TONS OF EQUIPMENT, SUPPLIES, FOOD, WATER, BUILDING SUPPLIES, GENERATORS..ETC.

I may be able to dial in for the conference but in case such is not done from Tampa please review suggestions at http://www.scribd.com/ralphwhitleysr in the form of HOW TO MANUALS.

My concern would be that in March, 2010 there is an upcoming event which should guarantee HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE SHELTER should non profit groups approach ARMY NAVY STORES and L.L. BEAN plus others to receive DONATIONS OF TENTS, SPECIAL BUILDINGS, BRICKS OR BLOCKS, CONCRETE, MIXING BOXES, CB RADIO’S WITH PA SYSTEMS, SOLAR GENERATORS, SOLAR POWER ITEMS, COTS, BLANKETS, RAINCOATS, STEEL TOE BOOTS, Hammers, Nails, Sledgehammers, PROFESSIONAL FULL LENGTH WELDING GLOVES, HELMETS, GOGGLES, PAPER PRODUCTS, 55 GALLON DRUMS PLASTIC AND METAL WITH SEALABLE TOPS FOR LATRINES, SLINGS TO PICK UP THE BARRELS, BARGE FOR TAKING BARRELS TO SEA AND SALT WATER PUMPS TO WASH OUT THE BARRELS RETURNING THEM TO THE LATRINE AREAS, EXTRA STENCILS AND WHITE PAIN TO PAIN TOPS OF TENTS WITH NUMBERS AND LOCATIONS, S P O T UNITS FOR GPS VERIFICATION OF ALL TENTS, WORK AREAS, HOSPITALS, POLICE STATIONS TO ALLOW INSTANT FINDING OF THESE PLACES BY HELICOPTER IN EMERGENCY OR TO DELIVER PRODUCTS.

I see with GOOGLE EARTH hundreds of acres of bare land which could be TENTED with pallets to keep everything dry, clear plastic barrel liners for storage bags which can be sealed and one can see through same. ALL CANNED, BOTTLED GOODS should be washed with soap and salt water to get urine and fecal matter OFF OF THE TOPS OF CANS which people will snap open and drink directly from same as this can transmit Leptospirosis or various diseases when rats, cats, birds and other creatures seek protection from weather or just search for food. FLYERS and PA SYSTEM announcements must be recorded in Creole and French plus English to be transmitted to the people from Helicopters, Military and Police Vehicles day or night. Locations for FREE latrines which can be barrels with a moving latrine on wheels allowing once full two people to push same over another barrel then seal the one full to be picked up. 5 gallon buckets like from Home Depot with liners and SECURE COVERS can be used temporarily until more barrels can be brought forward.

Earth Latrines must be an option but I prefer to see barrels taken to sea PLUS the dead can be given a service on land and bodies loaded onto barges with heavy duty wood chippers to take the bodies to sea, deep to sea and chip them up pushing all over the side for FISH FOOD to save contaminating the wells or groundwater if not the water lines which are broken. Heavy amounts of CHLORINE like over 25 PPM will be required to be pumped through the existing water lines broken and rainwater filling them with bacteria. Suggestions of using NEW PLASTIC WATER LINES and SEWER LINES should be considered rather than using any steel lines or copper lines for future rebuilding.

I am extremely confident the Children of Haiti, especially those Scouts and young adults, will learn construction techniques and become the Contractors of the Future provided they are schooled in Creole and French plus English using HIGH CODES and are matched with Contractors who will teach them for the next three years of reconstruction. MOVIE groups must take professional agency films on building trades from all over the United States, translate the items by using court reporters to write the text, translate the text then DUB or provide subtitles in Creole and French but I prefer to have the films DUBBED in French or Creole then let the STUDENT VOLUNTEERS perhaps be paid a wage, given quarters in tent cities at school for construction, plus special protective clothing numbered and signed out with JUMPSUITS WITH REFLECTIVE TAPES SEWN ON SHOULDERS, BACK AND FRONT LIKE CONSTRUCTION REFLECTIVE VESTS to identify the students and instructors PLUS aid in finding them should they be in danger or working at night. As a State of Florida Certified Plumbing Contractor plus Specialist in Security and Communications ( KC4NUQ ) (Former Senior Military Police Instructor, Former TPD, Former HCSO, Former Tampa International Airport Police, Florida Security Guard Licensed) I can tell you ON THE JOB TRAINING WILL WORK SO LONG AS YOU TRANSLATE THE VIDEO AND AUDIO IS PROVIDED FOR THE PEOPLE TO STUDY —Pay and feeding plus quarters and ability to wash clothing and bodies is a must PLUS latrines and safe lighting will make people really desire to become part of the rebuilding.

PLEASE SEE THESE SUGGESTIONS REACH OUT TO ALL ON THE FORUM AND THANKS FOR GIVING ALL THE OPPORTUNITY TO HELP HAITI !
