The Cape Agulhas Lighthouse, the 2nd oldest working lighthouse in Southern Africa, will be 150 years old on March 1, 1999. As a special tribute to this anniversary, Prof. Carl Lohann, a trustee of the Lighthouse Museum at Cape Agulhas is attempting to gather one million e-mail wishes for this historic occasion.

All e-mail greetings will be installed on a CD-ROM and these CD's will be sealed into the lighthouse's date-stone during the official celebrations. This means that all those who send a greeting will be put into the "Time-Capsule" and so will become a part of the history of this famous lighthouse. The web address to send your greeting is - http://www.cape-explorer.com.

The dates being celebrated are 1849-1999 for this lighthouse that is situated at the southernmost tip of Africa and at the official point where the Atlantic and Indian Oceans meet.
