Some sort of meeting/press conference

[Camino LS6]

Just barely caught something on the news about GM having something like this in Wilmington today. Anyone else here this/know details? I kept watching but they didn't return to the story, and I was just waking up at the time.

Today is the annual share holder meeting.

[Mr.Krinkle]

Nah - I was thinking more along the lines of the buckles being clamped and fastened on his straight jacket.

[Mr.Krinkle]

Hmm, odd that it would be in Wilmington. I guess that's what threw me.

Most major US corporations are incorporated in Delaware, including General Motors- it is why corporate litigations take place in Delaware, i.e, the Disney court battle last year. Plus there is a history between GM and duPont ( founded and based in De.)

Drove by the Hotel duPont this morning- tv crews and protesters were lining up near the entrance. Didn't see Bob, Ricky or Bm though

I'm aware of the Delaware monopoly on corporations, it just struck me as odd that the meeting physically take place there. Is it a legal requirement?

Thanks for the post.

No requirement. They used to have the meetings around the country, but have had in DE for a good while now. Ford had their meeting here ( Hotel duPont) a few weeks ago.

As for a monopoly(?)- no monoply, just great tax rates!

I should have put "monopoly" in quotes in my reply.
