"I'm what the world considers to be a phenomenally successful man. And I've failed much more than I've succeeded. And each time I fail, I get my people together, and I say, "Where are we going?" And it starts to get better." - Calvin Trager
Monday, July 19, 2004 Here we are on top of the dam at Akosombo. The dam creates Lake Volta ... the largest man-made lake in the world ... and also provides more than 90% of Ghana's power and surplus power it sells to surrounding countries. It was one of the big development projects of Ghana's first president, Kwame Nkruma -- although he was run out of office and out of Ghana a couple months after he and Jackie Kennedy opened the dam. History has since shown Nkruma was right. | Mike at 7/19/2004 06:45:00 AM

"Christ's example is being
demeaned by the church if they ignore the new leprosy,
which is AIDS. The church is the sleeping giant here.
If it wakes up to what's really going on in the rest
of the world, it has a real role to play. If it doesn't,
it will be irrelevant."
