Shell names Nokia outgoing CEO as non-exec chairman
http://today.reuters.co.uk/news/news...ERGY-SHELL.xml
>>>AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - Royal Dutch Shell has chosen Jorma Ollila, chairman and chief executive of Finnish cellphone company Nokia, to be its non-executive chairman from June 1, 2006, the oil giant said on Thursday.
-- ow. Jorma, how can you do something So Major Dumb like this? It was you who made Nokia into an enviro-friendly global leader. And now you intend to pimp for an *oil* company? Do you *really* want to be splattered with the mess of the Middle East? Do you *really* want to lead a (no pun intended) dinosaur of a company? Do you *really* want to be seen as one of the enemies of alternative energy sources that are more earth-friendly and which would free us from the Oil Sheiks? Someone tell me I am hallucinating this.
