Harry has 'borrowed' most of the pages for this website from www.12-12-12.org. Andronicos 'The Great' is not amused to have Harry Potbelly as a competitor for the grand title 'Director of the Human Race, Manager Planet Earth' but has agreed to a compromise.

His Greatness will tolerate Harry's use of the material for the time being as long as the content of what would have been shown below, remains untouched.

Anyway, Harry has copied this page exactly as shown on 12-12-12.org and added his own letter to the people who rule the world underneath the one written by His Greatness back in the summer of 2003. See below.

Andronicos 'The Great' says:

Who Rules the World?

There are 6.3 billion + people alive on earth today. Of these there are only approximately 200,000 powerful individuals who collectively rule the World. Within the 12-12-12 book, they have been graded into four "power" categories: Grade A, B, C and S, with twelve "Influence" sub categories of 1-12.

If they all worked together with our help, these individuals possess the power, influence and/or wealth to bring about true Global Peace and the total eradication of absolute poverty by December 12th 2012.

Three questions spring to mind: Why don't they? What can we all do to help? And if you are one of these 200,000 collective World rulers, what is being asked of you?

The letter below will be sent for comment to all public companies in the World, using various means at the appropriate time. It is the first of several. This first letter is both positive and polite.

An open letter from Andronicos "The Great" to all category "B" Rulers of the World

Letter 1 (August 20th 2003)

Global Flag

Dear CEO or key board Member of every Public Company in the World that fits my criteria for selection

Congratulations are in order. You are one of just a few thousand people that will make history. Your names will be honoured forever, wherever and whenever the human race eventually colonises other planets. You hold the key to Global Peace and the total and absolute end to extreme poverty worldwide. Such an historic achievement with your help will never ever be forgotten.

I have three requests for you and your Board of Directors to undertake. Firstly listen to my speech which was given with you in mind. Secondly as a sign of support to the billions who go to bed hungry every night, please follow my directives on fasting on the 12th of every month as described in section 1.100.10. Thirdly, when asked by various messengers I will use to send this letter to you and your board, or if I turn up with a film crew, I want you to answer one simple question within 12 working days, by emailing via a temporary corporate email ID, here. Your response will be made public on the www.12-12-12.org website and other websites.

The question is as follows:
Would you recommend an investment in acquiring an asset for your organisation, using 10% of your global profits for 10 years to buy (or guarantee to fund by way of security) the type of Bond as described in section 1 of the 12-12-12 book and website, if most other public companies in the World agreed to do so and millions of volunteers each offered free labour for at least 90 days to achieve the key goals as described in a business plan by a top 12 audit or consulting firm?

Your answer should be (1) 'Yes', (2) 'No, because....' or (3) 'Yes, as long as there are conditions (which you should itemise in your open communication to me)'. No response at all, will be counted as a 'No' unless I am informed otherwise.

Not only will several billion people thank you for helping, but so will your shareholders who will benefit from the new markets the 12-12-12 initiative will create for your goods and services. More importantly, it will act as a catalyst for World Peace and Security. But most importantly, your future descendants, who in millions of years across the Cosmos could be more abundant than there are grains of sand on all the beaches in the World, will look back at this time, perhaps literally, and be proud at last to be called Human Beings and be privileged to be related to you personally.

I commend many of you for the considerable amount of time and money that has been spent helping good causes by way of charitable donations. I am not asking for charity, I am asking for a one off investment from people such as yourself, who manages certain corporations or has the power and influence to effect policy decisions within G20 Governments.

Billions of people await your response. Think from within before replying to me and bear in mind the reputation of your highly prized brand name can be enhanced substantially, not only in the short term, but for as long as the human race exists.

Yours truly

Z

Director of The Human Race and Manager Planet Earth

Letter one and a half (December 12th 2004)

Global Flag

Dear CEO or key board Member of many Public Companies in the World that fits my criteria for selection

Do as I say from now on or under 'Project A', I'll get millions of people to play with the share prices of your stocks and I’ll take over your boardrooms. I want 10% of all your profits for the next 10 years to eliminate global poverty. If you don't…..I'll kick arse. (Ed, Americans call bum cheek(s)…. butt, bottom or ass).

Listen to my coded messages on one of my other sites. Some of the tracks were produced with you in mind.

I will not tolerate any form of excuse. I want action now! Millions of people are in extreme poverty and enough is enough.

Yours truly

Harry 'The man with the plan'

Harry Potbelly Lord of the Onion Rings
Director of The Human Race and Manager Planet Earth

PS: I wish to emphasise that this letter does not apply to philanthropists or philanthropic organizations whether public or not. Furthermore, for legal reasons that I cannot disclose, neither does it apply to IBM®: a whale of a company the size of a dinosaur, so wonderful, I regularly use absorbent toilet paper with their logo preprinted on both sides to remind myself of their majestic grandness, even while visiting the loo (ed, he means 'restroom').

It will take an average person 12 hours to read and understand the contents of this website and listen to 'The Speech'. Is one hour a day for 12 days too long? Why don't you email the www.12-12-12.org link to 12 of your friends and discuss their opinions in 12 days time? Maybe the 7th person in your email chain can break the secret code and the 12th person, may hold the key to World Peace. Are you or someone in your family the 7th or 12th person?
