I don't think I need to remind you how important this decision is for the future of this company. Karelis Securities has been a leader in cloning research since 1990 when we underwrote some of the initial research that led to the cloning of the sheep "Dolly" in the U.K. in 1996. Let's not forget that in 1997, The Lost World (sequel to the movie Jurassic Park) brought in a staggering $1 million per hour on opening week-end, and the T. rex dinosaur named "Sue" was auctioned for a record $8.4 million. I think it's clear that we cannot afford to miss this opportunity to create the ultimate theme park--the REAL Jurassic Park! Everyone loves dinosaurs so here's our chance to make a fortune. Who cares if the dinosaurs are artificially reproduced from hybridization with birds? This will be the ultimate fantasy. Instead of trying to build a time machine for travel into the past, we can bring the past to the present. We've just located a game park in Louisiana for sale--the initial investment needed to refurbish the park is incidental when compared to the millions of dollars it would take to locate, study, and prepare a new site. All of the infrastructure, buildings, roads, pens, and landscaping are intact. As for the dinosaurs and human safety, let's remind ourselves that humans are used to dealing with far more complex and dangerous life forms that evolved long after dinosaurs went extinct--we'll just put in a series of strategic fences to keep the dinosaurs in and humans out. I hear the paleontologists may be arguing against cloning by citing Gould's ideas about chance as an important process in evolution, using that as a scare tactic to conjure up visions of dinosaurs evolving into bizarre, truly frightening life forms in the future. Make sure you mention ideas about the dinosaur-bird link as a counter-attack and all the ways that dinosaurs can benefit humankind. I have compiled a short list of resources you might find useful. I don't care what you argue so long as you convince those judges to allow dinosaur cloning.

I'll be waiting for your report,

C. B. Karelis, CEO Karelis Securities
