If you're interested, there's an article in today's (Tuesday) Wall Street
Journal on VW's unhappy shareholders.  "Already grumpy about the German car
maker's flat earnings, many institutional investors feel that VW is rubbing
salt in their wounds by refusing to take a greater interest in promoting
shareholder value and corporate transparency."

It would be a violation of copyright laws for me to post the article on the
list.

If you'd like an email copy of the article let me know (please email me off
list).  OF COURSE, if it would be a violation of copyright law to email you
a copy of this extremely valuable text, I will ignore your email so that
any copyright lawyers will ignore me.  I would HATE to do anything that let
stories get into the hands of people interested in VW at the expense of
failing to protect whatever it is that these copyright laws protect.
(Probably the silliest thing about copyright law is... I can make a copy of
anything for my personal use and so can you... but, if I make copies for
you and for me, I can be violating copyright law... even though the end
result is identical, i.e., we both have copies.)
