Answer:  I would say that from HP’s point of view, we have stressed global citizenship for a long time, and we have a lot of programs in place to help speed the economic and learning development and so forth in many different countries that have not achieved the same levels that many people enjoy in the United States.  I don’t know exactly what the connection is between that and prevention of and being proactive about terror, but I kind of believe that to the degree that we promote economic health and well being, the degree that we promote education, whatever your gender, or caste system or whatever, the degree that we promote those kinds of development activities, it is going to make it harder for people to jump in with terrorist activities.  So that is not a reaction to terrorism, that is something that both Compaq and HP have stood for, so those parts of the cultures came together quite well.  There are so many wonderful anecdotes, that I think it is just automatic now that we have those kinds of things in place.  So it focuses on development and global citizenship in many areas. 

Question:  So, in other words, in places where HP produces, there is a citizenship expectation of the leadership and the employment in that unit.

Answer:  Absolutely, we had an example the other day of a fellow who was hired in South Africa to move boxes or something that was the most entry level kind of position, and he learned to read and started paying close attention to what was in the boxes, and within three years, he has become one of the most highly skilled technical repair people working on computers, and was recognized recently by some of the officials in the South African government for being a leader, and that kind of thing.  Because of his background, that never would have happened several years ago.  So there are just little points of light like that in a lot of places. 

Question:  Anything from the other two large companies?

Answer:  I would say I had a similar experience.  We don’t really relate it back to terrorism, per se, but just being a good corporate citizen wherever we are.  We are a global company, more than 50% of our sales are from outside of the US, and we have people all over the world, plants all over the world, sales offices all over the world, and how we operate those operations, they need to be safe, they need to be responsible, and the investments we make in the communities that we are in around the world.  A lot of our products are the kind of products that people really need.  We make healthcare products, we make hygiene products.  So, I think the way we behave in the communities that we are in: volunteer work, donation, supporting local causes, has at least in some small way helped in building a positive image, but it’s not done for the war on terrorism, it’s something we have done forever. 

Question:  But nevertheless, it fits sort of the concept of proaction because it basically is built around concepts of caring for communities and the levels of the people.
