An insurgent may conduct a consent solicitation (well over a 60 day period) with a preprinted form and such detail is easily overlooked by solicited shareholders. Requiring separate dates and some semblance of each shareholder filling in a date reduces the opportunity for this malfeasance. On another note, I notice that many lawyers STILL commit the single date sin today...
