			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src='http://kara.allthingsd.com/files/2008/05/475px-inverted_question_mark.png' width='250' height='270' alt='question' /></p>
<p><a href="http://kara.allthingsd.com/20080505/all-things-dont-blink-or-youll-miss-it/">In exactly two weeks</a>, Walt Mossberg and I will be hosting Yahoo&#8217;s CEO Jerry Yang and President Sue Decker, among others, at the sixth edition of our <a href="http://allthingsd.com/d"><strong>D: All Things Digital</strong></a> conference.</p>
<p>Of course, there will be a lot of questions for the pair onstage, from either Walt or I, and also the audience (and <a href="http://allthingsd.com/d/ask-a-question/">you can ask your own here</a> to either Yang or Decker or any <strong>D6</strong> speaker in text or video), given the incredibly eventful year the much-buffeted Internet company has had. </p>
<p>That got even more eventful yesterday with <a href="http://digitaldaily.allthingsd.com/20080513/icahnhoo/">the news that billionaire activist investor Carl Icahn would decide today whether to enter the fray and wage a proxy fight for the company</a>, entering via the vulnerable position Yahoo (YHOO) has put itself in after not coming to terms with Microsoft (MSFT).</p>
<p>The software giant walked away 11 days ago, after repeated rejections of its unsolicited takeover bid by Yahoo and the blowing of its bluff over price with Microsoft.</p>
<p><img src='http://kara.allthingsd.com/files/2008/05/medium_moses.jpg' alt='moses' class='alignleft' /></p>
<p>Now with Icahn hovering&#8211;and there will be more opportunistic investors to come, prompted into action by some of Yahoo&#8217;s biggest shareholders, including Capital Research&#8217;s Gordon Crawford (<a href="http://kara.allthingsd.com/20080506/a-history-lesson-for-jerry-yang-it-sticks-in-my-crawford/">don&#8217;t say BoomTown didn&#8217;t warn you, Jerry</a>)&#8211;Yahoo is kind of like a town just whipsawed by a tornado and about to endure a flood.</p>
<p>And then some hail. Also, maybe a locust swarm or two.</p>
<p>Unfortunately for Yang, who also co-founded Yahoo, this 10 Plagues of Sunnyvale ordeal is likely to go on and on and, thus, the questions will not end for a very long time.</p>
<p>And, even more unfortunately, the answer to the most important one he should be asking&#8211;what to do now?&#8211;is the one that might be now entirely out of Yang&#8217;s hands.</p>
