One of the possible good things from Enron... is a better perspective though I'm not one to talk. (some of us still need to learn to better read the financial reports but...) but I do like the idea. even though like all other potentially good things it takes up too much time. How are we expected to buy all that neat shit and reaserch (and kick and scream and yell (yes you have to do that in everything)) stuff.

"It is about time investors start making demands of their companies. After all, the transfer of wealth from companies' shareholders to their executives in recent years has been nothing short of immense. Investors have been amazingly silent as the money changed hands."

"Shareholders of the world, take note: Start acting like the owners you are. Make demands of managers, keep a watch on their activities, rein in their obscene pay packages. Corporate executives are your hired hands, after all, but you've let them get pretty uppity in recent years. It's time to show them who's boss."
