RE: RE: RE: RE: Management info

RE: RE: RE: RE: Management infoSomething that puzzled me about the Management Information relating to the Proxy

(actually a whole lot of things puzzled me)

Why are they appointing an architect as a Director?
Are they planning on going into the Real Estate Business?

Is he representing shareholders when he owns no shares?
And how come the filing indicates that none of the people running for Director own shares?
The CEO owns no shares?

The Directors are going to vote in favor of things that will promote the company (?) but they have not bought shares on the open market? And the existing Directors have not exercised options and kept the shares? So why would people, who know less about the company value than what the current Directors know, want to buy shares if the Directors have not invested their own money in CDO shares?

The CEO doesn't own shares?

And apparently the public shareholders are so docile or unlikely to vote that the current Board did not feel the need to explain why the people running for the Board are qualified. Are those who are already on the Board qualified to look after the company for the owners (aka shareholders), given the sorry state of the company and its share price? They may very well be very competent, but there was no reasons given why they should keep their jobs.

Yet another puzzle is the Incentive Option Plan.
With almost 50 million shares in current incentive options and warrants out, isn't there already an incentive to get the share price up? An incentive that has not worked to make Management and the Board effective. The plan asks for the right to dilute by another 10% to incentivise employees.

There are few, if any employees.
They are consultants. The CEO is a consultant, not an employee.  
The people doing what little exploration work that is done are not employees of CDO.
René Bernard gets paid $5k per month as a consultant, not an employee, although his job as CFO may be as an employee.

While it may be wise, and save CDO money, to hire people as consultants instead of employees, what good has the past Incentive Options done to get CDO stock higher?
The answer is obvious.
Based upon evidence so far, what effect will another Incentive Option Plan likely have on the stock price?
If anyone would fill in that blank answer with something other than "none", I'd like to know the reason why they have their opinion, in case I missed something.

Perhaps the options are just in lieu of paying people actual money for their work.
If so, given the share price and that all options and warrants are way out-of-the-money, it is more proof that you get what you pay for.
