Be sure to click on that link to AEP's proxy form to see lots more enlightenment that the article doesn't mention, such as how all the AEP executives had their perquisites snatched from them in 2010 :-( Well, except for Mikey, who was wily enough to get his promise of free personal use of the corporate jet penciled into his employment contract, along with a lot of other goodies.
Why are some senior citizens having to choose between paying their AEP subsidiary electric bill or paying for medication on a monthly basis? I guess they won't be playing canasta with Mikey down at the Senior Center any time in the near future...
