mickeybritt: More -- In the past, I emailed 2 or 3 questions for each meeting and found that they grouped other similar requests into one discussion topic.

For example, my questions around dividends, special dividends, bonus compensation to execs were grouped together into one 30-second response. My specific questions were increases in dividends, an annual special dividend tied to the same formula as exec bonuses, and the excess cash hoard.

Their response was they review dividends, special dividends, and excess cash reserves on a regular basis in conjunction to enhancing shareholder value through these means, buybacks, and acquisitions when opportunities arise and will continue to address these issues on a regular basis.

This year, my wording will be different but more specific like; 'Would the Board consider an Annual Special Dividend based on criteria similar to how exec bonuses are calculated, so that shareholders can benefit from the success of the company as does manqgement. This would be a new way of creating true shareholder value via cash payments from profits.'
