We have seen a relentless march toward a unified Europe, and a new willingness to put aside old barriers. We have seen the potential of technology to transform developing nations that account for a majority of the world's polulation. And we're developing communications systems that can bring all the peoples of the Earth closer together. We need to keeps this in mind when we see the daily barrage of headlines about weakness in the U.S. economy or tension in the Middle East. We have the ability to form the partnerships that confront very stubborn problems. The auomotive and electronics industries have converged to produce vehicles that consume far less energy, and leave the environment much cleaner. We are developing systems that turn vehicles into mobile offices and communications centers. We are developing systems that will enable traffic to flow much more smoothly on existing highways. Together, we can take on the most urgent challenges of the times. Think of what the world was like 100 years ago. Think of how the pace of change is accelerating. Twenty years from now, we could be in a world that is as different from 1990 as 1990 is from 1890. A convergence of technologies is creating an explosion of opportunities for every one of us here today. Let's get together and share the adventure -and savor the thrill of discovery.
