Those of you who follow world human projects will probably know about the United Nations Millennium project known as the Library Of Alexandria in Alexandria, Egypt. This monolithic building was constructed in honor of the original Library of Alexandria of antiquity in the ancient world that was destroyed that gave the Middle East it's place of world knowledge and culture during the middle ages. The concept of the Library was to archive the achievements of Mankind so that knowledge could be shared. Today's modern Library of Alexandra serves the same purpose in the modern world by selecting what it considers to be advancements of human knowledge (both common and unique) to archive forever under the control of both the Egyptian Government and the United Nations UNESCO division (United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization). This library is state-of-the-art.
I am very pleased and proud to announce that Polishing of Metal has been accepted by the Library This now adds to the successful list of titles I have archived there including: The Alliance, Recorded History, McBBS & Comterm. I received notice yesterday in the mail from Chief Librarian Sohair F. Wastawy, Ph.D. Bibliotheca Alexandrina.
