David,

Appreciate your answering those questions!

Here's one more...

>>The poison pill only makes a hostile takeover difficult, and is
designed to protect the senior management team, not the
shareholders.<<

Hmnn, that doesn't sound good. How are senior management protected?
I guess salary wise, compensation wise if their employment
contracts get terminated sooner than expected? If this is the
case, then how does this get negotiated into the laws of the
board? Seems to be somewhat anti-friendly for shareholders.
I wouldn't think that senior management has that much leverage
unless their sleeping in the same bed as board members, and even
still, regular shareholders would be pretty vocal about such
a thing...unless they really want to keep senior management
badly enough??? I guess, I don't know enough about it.

Can you shed a little more light on it?

Thanks!
