In the air

4:30 am, CDT, October 1, 2011

Dear Family, Friends and Colleagues:

As I write this, I am 33,003 feet above the Atlantic Ocean, traveling at 570 mph in a 767 jumbo jet, four and a half hours away from my destination for the next month:  Accra, Ghana, in West Africa on the Gulf of Guinea.  Many of you know that I am participating in IBM's Corporate Service Corps, our corporate version of the Peace Corps.  I am joining ten other IBM colleagues from seven other countries for this tremendous experience.  Follow me, if you wish, at Blogspot and please feel free to share this with others as well as I am currently sleep-deprived and surely overlooked people!

Best regards,      KEN
