I think an EC is necessary here. I think it would be of great value to all preferreds as well as common shareholders. It has strongly changed the picture for WAMU shareholders. What is holding up the formation of an EC here? There were thousands of letters to the U.S. Trustee regarding the need for formation of an EC for WAMU, and that was very instrumental in getting an EC formed. With an EC, we have greatly increased power. I haven't read all of the numerous posts here, and I apologize if this has already been answered. Please give me a link or reference the post number if that is so.
