For the folks that owned stock last year, were you notified about an annual shareholder's meeting or sent a ballot to vote on members of the board and other items? I didn't buy into this stock until the first of the year (2010).

It appears one was held on 12/28/09. The 2010 meeting may be an opportunity to address some of our concerns.

Reading back through the 10k, it appears our board is a bit incestuous. It would be nice to break up this group and get a few business savvy individuals to represent our best interests.

Current board:
Edward Vasker (President, CEO)
Anzhelika Tassan (Ed's sister, CMO, Secretary
Larry Ditto (involved with company since 2005, was once the CEO but now just a board member)

Interesting to note the VP of production is the brother in-law of Ed (J. Scott Tassan).
