Simone 2 To Michael and Tessa 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS A driver fails without the support of a solid team, and I thank my friends, who supported me lap-after-lap. I learned a great deal from my advisor Jack Davis, who when he was not providing helpful feedback on my work, was always willing to toss the baseball around in the park. I must also thank committee members Sean Adams, Betty Smocovitis, Stephen Perz, Paul Ortiz, and Richard Crepeau as well as University of Florida faculty members Michael Bowen, Juliana Barr, Stephen Noll, Joseph Spillane, and Bill Link. I respect them very much and enjoyed working with them during my time in Gainesville. I also owe many thanks to Dr. Julian Pleasants, Director Emeritus of the Samuel Proctor Oral History Program, and I could not have finished my project without the encouragement provided by Roberta Peacock. I also thank the staff of the Samuel Proctor Oral History Program. Finally, I will always be grateful for the support of David Danbom, Claire Strom, Jim Norris, Mark Harvey, and Larry Peterson, my former mentors at North Dakota State University. A call must go out to Tom Schmeh at the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame, Suzanne Wise at the Appalachian State University Stock Car Collection, Mark Steigerwald and Bill Green at the International Motor Racing Resource Center in Watkins Glen, New York, and Joanna Schroeder at the (former) Ethanol Promotion and Information Council (EPIC).

  • Green Light Way You Are Energized and Ready to Accomplish Anything.” - Karen Howlett, President, Mcsweeney Steel Company
    Praise for GO! How to Think, Speak and ACT to Make Good Things Happen “Marilyn has packed her creativity and positive attitude into this book. With the Green Light Way you are energized and ready to accomplish anything.” - Karen Howlett, President, McSweeney Steel Company “You made a lot of Green Light thinkers here. Thank you!” - E. Martinson, Helsinki, Finland “Green Light is surely a new universal mind technology that disregards borders. It is an ideology, applicable in every country and territory on the globe, big or small, in every sphere of life, whether a chimney sweep or a housemaid, a civil engineer or a classroom teacher, a child or an adult. It has impacted my life so much just as I read through this book - and will do for many more as they experience this work. I call it the ‘Greenest revolution.’ It adds up to make the fifth factor of production, in addition to land, capital, labor, and entrepreneurship. All the initial four factors will fail to produce successful prod- ucts/results if the labor force and entrepreneurs fail to go the Green Light Ways, think the Green Light innovations, and to manage land and capital Greenly. This new mind technology is most needed in Africa - especially Sub-Sahara, where time still runs slow and people still sleep a lot more than being awake to think Green innovations and going the Green Light Ways. I recommend this area for your next stop in spreading this Greenest revolution. May the good God bless every one who endeav- ors to walk this Greenest revolutionary path.” - Mohamed (Sparo) Tarawalley Jr., co-founder, (non-profit) West African Youth Agenda Against Corrupt Practices (WAYAACP).
