You can do all of us and yourselves great harm with strident , aggressive ,accusatory questions at the stockholders meeting .Pierre,Rich Kaiser and Scammell are entitled to and deserve common courtesy and respect. Pierre has put his heart and soul and a lot of money and years of constant labor to bring SFMI to this point of immenant success,and we are lucky to be able to share in it.
There undoubtedly has been a lot going on behind the scenes that we don't know about and perhaps should not know about for sound reasons. Give those who are on the front lines making the decisions, & have the full facts a little credit and a little slack . They are not dummies and they are not crooks despite the constant poison and lies and doubt deliberately put out by the Bashers and price manipulators.
Questions are of course OK and needed, but do it courteously and phrased in such a way that it is not accusatory or angry. If you are filled with self-righteous anger at ASSUMED wrong doings or ASSUMED shortcomings you may be simply ignorant of the facts and reasons behind the actions, and if you are courteous, patient and persistent , you may get answers that will enlighten us all. Perhaps you can cooperate with another attendee to frame followup questions in a courteous way , in case the question is not answered in sufficient depth or side-stepped.
Most important DON'T PISS OFF the BOSSES - --they have the power, the votes and the knowledge, and if you anger or offend them there are many ways they can retaliate and hurt us all. We want willing cooperation, harmony and goodwill on their part and ours. LINDY
