Comments = To whom it may concern:
     
     
  It is very apparent that the Market Makers are manipulating the share 
  price of Loch Harris(OTC BB "LOCH")to their own advantage.  Something very
strange
  is going on because for the last couple of months there has been tremendous 
  buying pressure for Loch Harris stock but the price/share keeps sinking. 
  For the last few weeks buys versus sells have been approximately 2-to-1 and
the
  price/share keeps sinking.  Investors are being scammed of their hard earned 
  money.
     
  It is my suspicion [and many other investors] that the market makers have a 
  huge short position in LOCH [aquired by naked short selling] and are
manipulating
  the share price for their own advantage [or the advantage of others].
     
  It is time for the SEC to implement rules that put restrictions on the market 
  makers ablilty to naked short sell OTC BB stocks without having to report
their
  short positions.
     
  Sincerely,
  Joseph Guibord
