________________________________________________________________________________ The World Trade Organization is proud to announce its new official home page, inaugurated just twelve days before the "Millennium Round" negotiations begin in Seattle. RTMark agreed to donate their own URL, http://rtmark.com/, to house the new WTO site for the next few weeks. All of the usual RTMark content is present in the new site, though in a somewhat different order than usual. RTMark has donated websites to the George W. Bush presidential campaign (formerly GWBush.com, now archived at http://rtmark.com/bush.html) and, most recently, to New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani (http://yesrudy.com/). With this newest donation, as with the earlier ones, RTMark hopes to help the beneficiary clarify its efforts and aims, previously presented in a muddy and misleading fashion (at http://www.wto.org/). WTO Director Mike Moore expressed his enthusiasm for the clarified site: "I just hope they are as reasonable as we try to be and that we engage in an intellectual, democratic way without any media terrorism." (Washington Post, 2 November 1999) Charlene Barshefsky, U.S. Trade Representative to the WTO, chimed in with an expression of hope: "The single greatest threat to the multilateral trade system is the absence of public support." (Financial Times, 11 October 1999) Happy Millennium Round!
