From: Nick Lenz [lenznick@crocker.com] Sent: Monday, October 20, 2003 7:30 PM To: rule-comments@sec.gov Subject: S7-19-03 Dear SEC, I am somewhat amused at your anemic approach to "democratize" the nomination for corporate board members, but not enough to trust these huge corporations or mutual funds with my investment dollars. This wimpy approaches causes me even further distrust in the system you regulate and its regulators. Do open up corporate board nominations without "trigger conditions" that are at best, unlikely to occur. Your current position is mere spin signifying no change. Sincerely, Andrew N. Lenz 144 N.
