Judging by the description provided in "The Car that Could", Ken Baker will be a fabulous addition to ECD. My recollection of the book, which is comparable to Tracey Kidder's classic "Soul of a New Machine", is that Baker played the pivotal role in bringing GMN into the alternative vehicle world. His personality, as described in the book, is marvelously forceful and charismatic. My impression was that GM had to spit him out because he was just the kind of person that could transform that old nag and they weren't ready for it. One wonders what the dynamic will be like between Baker and Stempel. God, I love this company! What an amazing crew.

Why do you bother to post this. As information about board memebers it is helpful. As information on hoiw to vote shares it is totaly worthless. You have no say in how your company is run Stan controls the votes it makes no difference what you or any other shareholder thinks. The only way you can voice your opinion is to sell or buy shares. That is why this stock is valued so low. As big a critic as I am if Stan stepped aside (from the business point of view), gave up his supervoting rights and professional managers took over I would think this would be a tremendous buying opportunity.
