Gentlelmen:

I have been routinely voting to withhold approval of all board candidates in 
corporations I own where the Board rejects shareholder proposals that I approve 
of and that I know most shareholders approve of, for example, doing away with or 
expensing options.  Boards don't care!!!  The shareholders best interest is not 
necessarily the Board's best interest.  That has to change.  Give shareholders a 
real chance to make Boards listen to them!!
