First I would like to thank the SEC Commission for finally addressing and 
acknowledging naked shorting in the market instead of turning a blind eye
that has been turned for way too long. I know it must be a hard candy to chew
on but it must indeed be chewed anyway because, we the people of the United
States who's Generations of Men and Women who served this country are not
going to sit back and let Naked Short Terrorists from offshore countries take 
our money anymore, we have had enough and the stuff is hitting the fan all 
over the place thanks to the power of the internet whom without we would not 
have tons of information to share with pretaining to this matter we can now 
see the light and its so bright I'm typing with shades on. I feel so ashamed 
of the people in power who allowed this type of stealing to go on right in 
front of our eyes while they sat there and did nothing for years upon years, 
at the same time I am very proud that we have the opportunity now to change 
the rules and the system and the wave of the future for the better for our 
children and grandchildren for generations to come thanks to a little man in 
New York Named Attorney General Eliot Spitzer, who if not for him we would 
all still screaming on top of our lungs without anyone hearing us, a silent 
cry of despair has turned into a bright light of song thanks to him.  I do 
not want my broker to be able to lend my shares that I buy with my hard earned 
money to some two bit offshore terrorist so that he can short my stock into 
oblivion and never return the stock he borrowed while he cashes out and buys 
a Hummer at my expense. I do not want to discuss this any further than I have 
to but I think you get my drift and I hope for all of America's sake you do 
what is right For the same people who has been doing right for our Country in 
return, it is only fair and just and it has to be done for the sake of the 
future of our  very own blood sweat and tears.   

Sincerely,
