I RECEIVE MANY PROXY FORMS THROUGH THE YEAR. I TRIED HAVING
THEM DELIVERED ELECTRONICLY, BUT THEY SEEMED TO BE SET UP
TO BE SO ANNOYING THAT YOU WILL JUST VOTE WITH THE COMPANY. IF YOU WANT TO READ THE PROXY STATEMENT IT WILL
TAKE YOU HOURS.AFTER EACH PAGE IT REVERTS TO THE FIRST
PAGE AGAIN. IN ADDTION I HAVE EXPERIENCED SOME PROXYS
WHERE I DO NOT AGREE WITH THE COMPANY POLICY OR I VOTE
WITH A PROPOSAL THAT THEY ADVISE AN AGAINST VOTE FOR, THE COMPANY WILL SEND ME A NEW PROXY
AS IF I HADN'T VOTED EVEN AFTER THEY SAY "YOUR VOTE HAS
BEEN RECORDED" . I TRULY BELIEVE THIS IS PURPOSELY
DONE TO FAVOR THE COMPANY.
SOME COMPANIES MAKE IT VERY DIFFICULT TO FIND THE INFO
YOU MAY BE LOOKING FOR IN THE PROXY STATEMENT. I HAVE
OFTEN NOTICED THAT THE "TABLE OF CONTENTS"DOES NOT ALWAYS
COINCIDE WITH THE REAL LOCATION OF THE INFO. IT IS USUALLY
A CONTRAVERSIAL ISSUE.
THANKS FOR LETTING ME VOICE MY DISPLEASURE. I THINK MANY
PEOPLE DO NOT VOTE BECAUSE OF THESE KINDS OF ISSUES.
