FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Complete text of the Lunar Embassy's message. (All errors in spelling and punctuation are reprinted as in the original; breaks have been added in paragraphs for clarity.) Greetings from the Galactic Government and the Lunar Embassy. Below is this months winner of this months guestbook competition! But first some news from the Head Cheese himself! We are off to a roaring start this year. After the events of last year we are pleased that the world is becoming more normal. It is with this normalcy that the Lunar Embassy can move forward with a few of the required plans to meet our objects some fifteen years from now. In this newsletter we ware going to tell you all about the adventure we are on and how we plan to get there. First however, I am going to tell you about a revelation I had after visiting my relatives for a memorial service for my mothers sister who was of course my aunt. In the course of the service I was reminded in a very strong way that life is short. This adventure we are on has the possibility of being so many different things to each of us. For me I find that I am guided daily in the perfection of this claim I have made over twenty years ago. Claiming ownership to the celestial lands in 1980 was just the start of this arduous task. As the property owners grew in numbers and the countries representing those property owners also grew to more than 175 certain facts began to arise. This project has now a life and energy of its own. It mirrors the life we have. At any given time it can become ill and need professional attention to make it better. It can survive and flourish if we want it to. It can become the success I have envisioned during its life. We can truly be the guiding force behind this project and we can make the world stand up and take notice of the accomplishments all of us have made to this point. We can change the course of human history and show the people of this planet that there is a way to become the leaders without becoming overbearing, self serving, and self important. We have the opportunity here to create the next level of human development because we choose to. We do not have to let this project go in any obscure direction it wants to because we have the ability to direct it for the common good. We should take advantage of the incredible times we live in. Our technological advances are astounding. Our ability to evaluate and analyze most effectively the human condition allows us to have insights not afforded to our predecessors. I think we have the aptitude, intelligence, and desire to accept this challenge of the future. It is the goal of the Lunar Embassy in accordance with the newly formed Galactic Government to hold a, "Constitutional Congress." The express purpose of this Congress is to establish in writing the Constitution for this Galactic Government. The Lunar Embassy is inviting all of its more than one million property owners to join us in late August of this year to write the rules for this new society. We would like all of you to contact us through email, phone calls, or letters to let us know how you will participate. We need caucus leaders, discussion leaders, representatives of all walks of life, people with a desire to create a new society that will flourish in space communities. In short we need all of you. If you are reading this letter for the first time or the third or tenth time decide to help in this creation now. Our direct email is dmhopetd@aol.com (or if you like headcheese@moonshop.com works too). Our phone number if you are in the USA is 800-586-2729. If you are outside the USA the number is 001-775-782-6149 and our fax number is 001-775-782-6436. The address at the Lunar Embassy is 1506 Highway 395 North, Gardnerville, NV. 89410, USA. Starting this month we will be accepting orders for the following new planetary bodies. Two moons of Jupiter, Callisto and Ganyemede and the planet Mercury. The one acre parcels will be the same price as Mars, Venus and IO (eye-oh), $19.99 + $1.51 planetary tax + $10.00 for shipping and handling for up to five sets of properties to the same address. We will also be adding two more planetary bodies before the end of the year. You can also now order properties from the Moon of Earth's back side starting now. The Galactic Government and Lunar Embassy flags will be going on sale in the very near future. We will publish the prices as soon as we get them back from the manufacturer. We can tell you that you will be delighted to fly these two magnificent flags along with your country flags from here on Earth. As most of you know the Lunar Embassy started some 21 years ago. Since that time we have had a number of companies copy our business without much success. There is one company that persists in creating confusion for all of us. They are, "The Lunar Republic." A company that has strong ties with the Artemis Project. This company did not even exist until I was asked to speak at the 2nd Annual Lunar Development Conference held in Las Vegas, NV in 2000. After my invitation to speak on property rights was concluded the Lunar Republic turned up on the web. Our attorneys contacted them and explained to them that their site was in conflict with the trademark and copyright laws. After approaching this in a relatively friendly manner our attorneys had to threaten to bring suit against the Lunar Republic before they would shut the site down. The problem is they have started four sites and every one has been shut down by us with the exception of this last one. www.moonproperty.net. We are going to have to get very serious about these guys because they are posing threats to the increasing values of your properties. They need to know from you the real property owners that they do not have the right to create confusion in the market place. They started this business after they heard my speech on private property rights at the convention. They are harming your property values. You need to find a way to ask them politely to vacate the Internet and give way to the claim that preceded them by almost 20 years. My suggestion and one that has worked in the past is that each of you copy the prepared statement at the end of this news letter and email it to info@moonproperty.net at least three times a day for thirty days and they will go away. There is really no room in space for copy cats and we should help them to realize this. When the Galactic Government was formed in July of 2001, we also put into motion the ability to create regulatory agencies that would be able to allow the government to be in place and function without taxing the citizens ever. The first of those regulatory boards is the Patent and Trademark Office. We will issue and protect your patents and trademarks for ninety-nine years with an automatic option for ninety-nine more. The patents must be related to items used in space only. As an example; toasters work well as designed on Earth. They do not however, work well in space. They need to have design changes to them so they will function. This means that a multitude of products used on Earth for creature comforts will be effected by zero gravity and vacuum. This is the first call for any companies and or individuals that wish to apply for a patent from the Galactic Government. For application forms please contact the Lunar Embassy at the numbers and email address listed above. For Trademarks, individuals and businesses must create a legal entity similar to a corporation to enact the trademark. The Lunar Embassy in accordance with the Galactic Government will supply an address for the headquarters of such legal entities and then provide the trademarks. As with the patents contact the Lunar Embassy. The Bank of Issue is in development. We believe we will have the currency designed and approved by the Galactic Government sometime next year. If we can get our computer to the surface of the Moon with in the next two years we will open up electronic deposits for all citizens wishing to take advantage of a unique banking position. We are also looking for competent volunteers wishing to help us develop the mechanisms required to make this all work flawlessly. The Investment Exchange is designed to provide the private aerospace companies and their affiliates to find a venue to offer their stocks to customers not wishing to wade through thousands of other companies offered on the other exchanges here on Earth. We think one of the main reasons space travel is so limited is that the aerospace companies involved in the development of technologies needed to provide safe and affordable space equipment have a hard time finding the money required to build the crafts used for this purpose. The technology already exists and so does money. We are trying to find a way to get the two together. As time goes on and the development of the Investment exchange comes to fruition we will keep you informed. If any of you would like to participate in the construction of such an agency please let us know. We have reached final negotiations with an Ambassador for Japan and France. Contracts are being signed at the end of this month, February. The Ambassador program is a way for anyone interested in developing a business selling properties offered by the Lunar Embassy to create their own unique business. Ambassadors currently signed with the Lunar Embassy are in Canada, the UK (England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales), the Nordic Countries (Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Iceland), Germany, Japan, France. Any other country is currently available and I can tell you that the Ambassadors are making a very high income for their efforts. This is not a program for someone thinking about a part-time position. This will require discipline, financial backing, marketing and public relation skills, and a dogged determination to be your own boss with unlimited income potential. We are looking for a few good people. Male or Female there are no restrictions. You must be at least twenty-one years old and mentally competent with a desire to succeed in a very unique business. As time goes on we are trying our hand at negotiating with other countries for diplomatic status for our Ambassadors. Most of this will take place after the Constitutional Congress adjourns. Our goals for the next fifteen years are currently as follows: The Lunar Embassy will be the first organization to construct a livable facility on the Moon. We want to construct the Lunar Embassy on the Moon. We have the artist rendition in our Embassy now and you can see it on our website at www.lunarembasy.com The Embassy will house up to 600 people at a time and they can stay for as long as 30 days at a time. The Lunar Embassy and the Galactic Government will partner with some of the private space companies to insure that we have the ability to offer an affordable transportation to and from the Moon. We have already spoken to a number of companies and are starting a dialogue with them about this very subject. The Lunar Embassy and the Galactic Government have a desire to create a one world government that allows for real personal freedoms. The government will be created as a central place to get answers to problems that arise. It will not be self serving and self important. The democratic process will be in a pure form without special interests. It is the belief of this author that we are all special interests and we should be treated accordingly. The ultimate goal is to set into motion the foundation for building a society that will endure outside the scope of Earth. To create a societal environment unknown but dreamt about by humans. To take the next ten to fifteen years and create a basis of living for all citizens of the planetary bodies sold by the Lunar Embassy and have all aspects of growth, planning, development, travel, housing, commerce, and government in place by the time we get there. None of this can be done without your input. Take a chance and help us build a more perfect union. Allow us to provide a vehicle to the stars. Become involved in this adventure called life and take a stand for real freedom. Help us build our world the way it should be. As citizens of celestial bodies I thank you for allowing me into your lives and hopefully your hearts. We are hopefully, the first transplanted citizens of the Moon. This has and is the greatest adventure I have ever been involved in. It seems that at every turn I am guided from above to push this project to its end. Without you, the citizens of these celestial lands none of this could take place. You are all my inspiration. I have been told on occasion that I ramble and create confusing letters. If this is one of them I apologize. My intent with any of these communications to you is to inform you of the results of your property ownership. We know that some of you will never use your property for anything other than to hang the documents on the wall and discuss the happiness you have showing them to others. For the estimated forty-three percent of you that will actually visit or use your property for some useful means we are going to do everything in our power to make sure you have the opportunity to develop your lands as you see fit. From the bottom of my heart I say thank you to all of you for being part of this family. With warm regards from the Galactic Government and the Lunar Embassy Dennis M. Hope CEO (Celestial Executive Officer - Galactic Government AKA: "The Head Cheese" (Following is the prepared statement for info@moonproperty.net) On your website you describe hundreds of thousands of purchasers of lunar properties. We know for a fact that you have not sold that many properties. You are using information from the Lunar Embassy site and we are not pleased with this tactic. You are creating confusion in the market place and devaluing our property that we purchased from the Lunar Embassy. It was the Lunar Embassy that originated the claim of ownership not you or your organization. We are displeased that you could willingly try to fool the public into believing that you have sold this many properties. We request that you remove this site immediately and cease the sales of any of your fraudulent land. Respectfully A real Lunar property owner With warm regards from the United States and the Lunar Embassy Dennis M.
