We are also concerned with the "Lake Woebegone" effect in that every board thinks their CEO is above average. Since all CEOs are above average every year, the average keeps rising.

I would very much appreciate your feedback on draft guidelines we have posted at http://proxyexchange.org/2011/05/request-for-comments-say-on-pay/

If you post your comments in the "Leave a Reply" box we will consider them next week when we meet near Boston. Thanks.

Hopefully, efforts like shareowners.org, VoterMedia.org, Investor Suffrage Movement TransparentDemocracy, & Proxy Democracy, will help retail shareowners and beneficial owners get involved. Please spread the word.

I hope you will also consider sending a comment to the SEC supporting our petition to prevent blank votes by retail shareowners from automatically turning into votes for management. See http://www.corpgov.net/news/news.html#BlankVotes.
