AskJohn.com sets its New Millennium Resolution

With the 20th century past and a new millennium right around the corner. AskJohn.com thought it would be appropriate to publicize its resolution for the world. It is written below.

"This year has marked a cusp in our existence that will span several generations. With a fresh new century and approaching millennium I hope the world will continue to grow closer together and share a common expression of progress and innovation for the improvement of every person. My goal at AskJohn.com is to leverage the power of the Internet and provide a forum for all to share their expressions and individual aspirations without influence or judgment. I am just an ordinary citizen of this planet who feels that finally there exists a vehicle for freedom without limits. Let's make the world a better place and tear down the walls of our histories. I pledge to do my best to help further the cause of human rights and help fight suffering at the hand of any oppressor."
