The "age" of some of the board, is not my main concern; I play
golf and bridge with some former big shots and they are still
as sharp as a new Ginzou knife. My concern is "boards" in
general, which historically are boot lickers and buttboys for
the CEO, et al. Nothing new there: it's been going on for decades.

But, in a financial institution, the fiduciary responsiblity of a board
is even more acute, imo.

Things are ugly out there.
