Dear Commissioners:
     
Please note my intense displeasure with any curtailment of a shareholder's 
right to voice therir concerns at a shareholder's meeting. Regardless of the 
sometimes irrelevant nature of the comments, no comments should be stifled. 
Now if you  cannot do something good for all shareholders, try doing nothing. 
Better yet. Try enforcing insider-trading, and fraud violations statutes by 
both officers, directors, and analysts. The manipulation of markets and of 
corporate assets should be investigated. However, the stifling of shareholder 
comments should not be your concern. End.
