Greg: Anthropomorphizing the Corporation

[Edward Britton <fremin@geocities.com>]

Greg:

Should you wish to do so, you may write the author concerning your
objections directly to the address attached to the header of the article. 

In the interim, may I assume that you have started and have owned a
corporation? If so, is the corporation now publically traded? I believe the
author's concerns center around publically held corporations and, as such,
are the focus of the treatise forwarded by myself.

An eager student, Edward   ><>
