To the Men and
Women of NIST:
I am writing
to voice the congratulations and thanks of the people of Delaware
on the occasion of the 100th Anniversary of the National Institute
of Standards and Technology.
Since its inception
as the National Bureau of Standards in 1901, NIST has brought order
into the world of American commerce and helped to build the technical
foundations that are so important in our nation today.
As an historical
leader in the chemical industry and a growing center of pharmaceutical
research and biotechnology, the First State is truly grateful for
the services provided by NIST throughout the past century. We look
forward to working together for many centuries to come!
Sincerely,
Ruth Ann Minner
Governor
