    FRENCH SOLAR POWER PLANT
    January 25, 1977 - Odeillo in the Pyranees of southwestern France

    France inaugurated its first operational solar generating plant at Odeillo in the Pyranees of southwestern France. Its output of 64 kilowatts (sufficient to power about 1,000 60-watt light bulbs), was connected to the national electricity grid to demonstrate operational solar power. The plant was part of the huge solar furnace project run by the National Center for Scientific Research. The site was built for high-temperature research using an eight-story parabolic mirror to refocus sunlight from an extensive field of mirrors on a hillside in front of it, with 63 moveable mirror arrays designed to follow the motion of the sun. The electricity was generated by a turbo-alternator driven by steam from a boiler at the focus of the reflected sunlight. Alignment of the mirrors began in May 1969.

    FLUORIDATION
    January 25, 1945 - Grand Rapids, Mich. U.S.A.

    Grand Rapids, Mich., became the first U.S. city to begin fluoridating the drinking water. With the intention of reducing tooth decay, one part per million of fluoride was added to the water supply. Fluorine is the 13th most abundant element on earth, found in nature in its ionic form - fluoride - in combination with other elements, such as calcium, magnesium, phosphates etc. This fluoride is present in small yet varying amounts in almost all soils, water supplies, plants, and animals and, therefore, is a normal constituent of all diets. In mammals, the highest concentrations are found in the bones and teeth. Decades after the conclusion of the Grand Rapids fluoridation study, fluoride continues to be dental science's main weapon in the battle against tooth decay.

It is one of Internet Marketing's most effective marketing tools. It keeps your product, service or website in front of your prospects or visitors so they won't forget you! Without a doubt, Autoresponders power most of the Internet marketing on the web.

Autoresponders are perfectly engineered for Internet Marketing. Their simplicity will surprise you but the results you will get by using Autoresponders will more than amaze you.

As a dispenser of information that's always on call, the Autoresponder is a little workhorse that always delivers - 24/7/365.

People need to trust who they are buying from - your Autoresponders will build that trust. They will help you build a relationship with your subscribers and clients. In our wired (sometimes scary) world, Autoresponders can be a friendly link to your website visitors, clients or patrons.

Marketing studies have constantly shown that customers rarely buy on first contact, it usually takes 6 to 7 follow-ups before they buy. Autoresponders will keep you in contact with your site's many visitors or prospects. Use your Autoresponders to provide useful information on topics that your subscribers want and you will create a flood of repeat visits to your site or sites.

In the process you will build up a valuable list of targeted prospects. Potential customers who want to know more before they buy. That's the main reason many professional marketers use Autoresponders - to build a loyal list of contacts who will return to their sites and become repeat customers again and again.

Setting up an Autoresponder does take some work, especially writing the series of follow-up messages that you will be sending to your visitors or prospects. Placing the HTML subscribe box code on all your webpages does take some time unless you're using a common template. But the saving grace for autoresponders is that once it is set up, you can simply forget about it.

Autoresponders will automatically do all the follow-up work for you. These systems will work for years, drawing in and building a valuable targeted list of contacts and clients. Most marketers would be dead in the water without their autoresponders!

There are many reliable AR systems you can choose from and you can also place your own autoresponder on your server, however, because it only takes one spam compliant to shut down your site; most savvy marketers use 'Third Party' Providers for their AR systems.
