ADVISORY...for Wednesday (Nov. 28)

--(BUSINESS WIRE)

WHAT:             The InternetCoast organization has secured former
                  Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, Newt
                  Gingrich, to be the keynote speaker at its quarterly
                  meeting. Newt Gingrich took an interest in the
                  InternetCoast earlier this year after reading an
                  article about the region in a national publication.
                  As a historian and visionary, he was intrigued by
                  what he later dubbed the `InternetCoast
                  Intersection,' saying that herein lies great
                  potential, and that the organization (InternetCoast)
                  could become the major intersection between Latin
                  America, the Caribbean, Africa, and Southern Europe.
