Given the recent cascade of corporate misconduct and CEO profligacy, close attention must be paid to the rules devised to govern such behavior. Personally, I hope this is just the beginning of a comprehensive improvement process, which would include such issues as replacing CEO-selected directors with those chosen by shareholders. This is a fine beginning. I - and many like me - will be watching your progress with keen interest. Thank you. Susan Marya Baronoff
