Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) February 5, 2005 -- Johnny D'Farmer*, founder & official mascot for the new international See-Peace Foundation, is pleading with Peace-Lovers around the Earth to assist with renaming "The World's Biggest Airport" (Atlanta), AND creating a new official slogan for his town. On February 9th he invited all the members of the media to join him (with his Nuclear Red hair) in Atlanta's Woodruff Park when he announced his organizations choice for a new city slogan... "Atlanta: City of Peace."
Johnny proclaimed: "Let's honor Nobel Peace Prize Winners with a new name at our airport, and let's also give Atlanta Mayor Franklin a new official slogan for our beautiful, dynamic, international city."

Prior to the press conference D'Farmer urged everyone to bring a big homemade sign (especially artists) that said: "Atlanta: City of Peace!" His ultimate goal is to see Atlanta's airport, "The World's Biggest & Busiest Airport", renamed to: "GKC International Airport". This NEW name would honor Mahatma Gandhi, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and Jimmy Carter (history's 3-MOST internationally accomplished, respected and well-known Nobel Peace Prize winners). Naming the airport: "GKC International Airport" (honoring Gandhi, King & Carter) is the best alternative. Johnny is VERY committed to this peace initiative (http://www.11alive.com/news/news_article.aspx?storyid=35960). He proclaims: "We will be able to add many, many thousands & thousands of new names to this online international Peace petition over the coming months if we win with our proposal to get Sir Richard Branson, and Virgin Galactic signed on as official corporate sponsors. In fact, Johnny invites ANYONE & EVERYONE to help... "Oprah, Dr. Deepak Chopra, Peter Max, John Travolta, Bono, Jay Leno, Ellen Degeneres, Donny Deutsch, Martin Sheen, Bill Gates, and ALL... can YOU take this project to the international media news markets?" And thru this Press Release he NOW urgently invites them & others to contact him. Can YOU help him to convince them & everyone to assist? His message & Internet Peace-petition can be brought to millions of Peace-Lovers around the world. The result? "The World's Biggest & Busiest Airport" gets a proper NEW globally respected name, and his town will eventually become known internationally as: "Atlanta: City of Peace."
The See-Peace Foundation is non-profit organization and supports the goals of the GKC-Airport Internet petition. Both serve the 'Cause of Global Peace' well, and also promotes the City of Atlanta as being an international city, and a peaceful city. So far there are individuals signing from 37 USA states, plus 41 countries of the Earth (please sign & forward: www.GKC-Airport.com). But because of his limited marketing knowledge & financial resources, the total number of names on the petition amounts to just 497 currently. D'Farmer proclaims:
"This can change dramatically as soon as we convince Sir Richard Branson & Virgin Galactic, and other international "movers & shakers" to join our team. Will YOU help us to convince them?"
Most importantly, D'Farmer wants to properly honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (locally-in Atlanta, in Washington, DC (www.MLKmemorial.org) and especially on a global basis). And with YOUR assistance, he can do this thru the goals of the See-Peace Foundation. THIS year is the 40th Anniversary Award Ceremony for his Nobel Peace Prize and the 42nd anniversary of his internationally respected and inspiring speech: "I Have A Dream!"
We've all heard how our current US President describes "the axis of evil" (Iraq, Iran & No. Korea). But Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. stated that the TRUE 3-Evils to address are:
1) bias & racism
2) poverty & homelessness
3) violence & hatred & war
Although Johnny's silly character may find difficulty in getting others to take him serious (because he's a clown) ironically, a VERY serious invitation is now going out (thru this very news release) to the entire population of our global family (especially Sir Richard Branson, Oprah, Dr. Deepak Chopra, Peter Max, John Travolta, Bono, Jay Leno, Ellen Degeneres, Donny Deutsch, Martin Sheen, Bill Gates) to please assist with transforming the capitol of Georgia into Earth's capitol (now becoming known internationally as):
"Atlanta: City of Peace"
Please help create...

Earth's capitol-
"Atlanta: City of Peace"
"Peace is the sweeter music."

we must come to know each other better!"

Then they fight you.

D'Farmer proclaims, "Please help us win with our new slogan Atlanta: City of Peace", and ESPECIALLY in renaming our airport ("The World's Biggest & Busiest Airport"). Lets rename it: "GKC International Airport", honoring Mahatma Gandhi, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and Jimmy Carter. Our global home (Mother Earth) does not have a "Capitol of Peace". Considering that peace is VERY important to cultivate, and also that 2 of history's most internationally accomplished, respected and well-known Nobel Peace Prize recipients are from Atlanta (Dr. Martin Luther King, and President Jimmy Carter) why not volunteer our city (Atlanta) to be our planet's capitol? The new slogan-- "Atlanta: City of Peace" is a big step towards that." Let's HONOR Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (WHAT A SERVANT) & Jimmy Carter (our countrys MOST productive former-US President in our Entire 229 years of history).
"Every time anyone anywhere on Earth hears the word 'Atlanta' they can begin having 'an ethical moment' by considering how their own life is following the great international examples of King and Carter (in addition to Gandhi, their teacher). Millions & millions of "cousins" in our global family (in every part the world) can be inspired to create more peace in their own lives, and also in others."
D'Farmer is one of many concerned & active "cousins" of our global family who feels that growing in the Art of Peace is very near the top of the big list of important virtues to grow in. Perhaps 'courage' is number four on the list, behind faith, hope & love. World-renowned author Mr. CS Lewis says it best...
"Courage is not simply one of the virtues.
Courage is the form of every virtue at its testing point."
- CS Lewis
