To raise an issue/question at the stockholder's meeting? Certainly to force
a change on the company would require sufficient shares to win the vote, but
to just raise an issue I don't see where that would require anything other
than being a stockholder. I *suppose* them that presides over a meeting can
set forth the rules under which the meeting gets conducted, but they have to
balance a draconian control of the agenda with the risk of a class of
shareholder taking them to court.
