Probably the weirdest board in the world

Financial Times had a funny (read: strange) column the other day. In the widely read "The Lex Column" the journalist accused one of our most successful International companies for having the weirdest board in the world, because the board consists of 5 ‘professors’ and 3 businessmen.
