Jeff-Clarification Dear than I thought. re WEF , sorry with this miserable day it took me longer to access all the detailed documentation I'm still at Fedex. Power is NOT back up at home therefore STILL NO INTERNET :-(
Above, please attached for your interest and review:
i) The full program of WEF MENA in Marrakech October 26 - 28, 2010 ii) The Attendee List by Country (provided in this format by WEF) iii) Supporting Letters/Docs for WEF: Letter of Invitation and confirmation of reduced WEF Fee and Hotel and Payment Details Letter Confirming WEF Forum Reduced Fee of $3,500 Letter of Invitation to Speak and Details Confirmation of Holding Hotel Reservation (the cheapest there at 200 Euros per night) for 800 Euros = $1,116 U.S. at today's rate Confirmation of Travel from LAX-RAK-TLV-LAX (LA-Marrakech-Tel Aviv-LA PAID FOR ALREADY BY A SPONSOR. ($2,669)
Jeff, I have managed to find one sponsor who has kindly TODAY paid my airline ticket at $2,669 that you can see above and in the supporting
documentation. He (Dan Gould) is a successful young intemet entrepreneur who has much admired my work over the years and wants to assist me to be able to take up this opportunity at the WEF.
Therefore, the travel part is done and if at all possible, I am seeking the WEF fee of $3,500 + the basic hotel fee (the cheapest I could get in Marrakech, attendees are captives of the hotel system there) which is $1,116 at today's dollar rate - for a total of $4,616 instead of the original larger amount of my earlier email.
If this is possible for you - the fees can be directly paid to the WEF (details on the Supporting Letters document) -
Thank you so much in advance for considering this much greater detail that I have now supplied.
As of 8pm tonight the power and internet IS STILL NOT BACK UP GRRRRRRRRRRR Verizon comes between 8-10am pst tomorrow am to fix the internet if they can.... I'm still at Fedex.... :-(
Thank you , Jeff !
