This is a palatable compromise. Getting rid of "I now cause Joe to

That last sentence is in the proposal twice. I would advocate it being 
there zero times.

Perhaps Officers could be defined and empowered through this power of 
attorney instead? There are definitely times I would want to exercise my

I withdraw my Contracts proposal and roughly support this one instead.
