Good morning Patti,

The suggestion to dump Nestle shares was posted on Lactnet chat group (3,000 members - likely 75% American) and was cc'd to people who are supporting me - thought they might pass the suggestion on to others.  Renee

  Hi Rennee - i don't know everyone on this list - but I'm sure the IBFANers won't have regular shares unless like me they have some to use specifically to attend Nestle Shareholder meetings    (originally  I had two but they have been divided up over the years so they've multiplied.  )


   I need to have enough to pay the bank charges of managing them - but probably now have more than I need.   


  When and if things get going in the US it would be great  if someone could attend the AGMs in Lausanne Switzerland (the next is in Aril 19th)  please  do - its well worth the effort  for us - but realise its  much further for you.  Mike Brady is going this year. 


  There must be a US Shareholder meeting - if so do keep some  shares and go along  to rattle them.    


  But be aware that just holding a one  would disqualify anyone from joining the European food Safety Authority  under the new rules.

  Any of you hold Nestle shares in your portfolio? (You might need a financial advisor to help you identify your shares).   Might be a good time to dump them!  Why not bring up the topic at your St.Patrick's dinner party!
