>>Like the thought, but there are 3.3 bil shares out now. Where are the shares for a split going to come from? Do

They vote the shares at the meeting. Usually after a split has already been announced, subject to shareholder approval. They usually authorize enough for two splits, so they don't have to put the issue before shareholder so often.
