Katz Secretary, Securities and Exchange Commission 450 Fifth Street NW Washington, D.C. 20549 Re: Proposed Regulation FD Dear Mr. Katz: This is a step towards leveling the playing field with Full service brokers in closed door meetings and in my opinion opens the marketplace to new level of trading. I think it is time for Full Service Brokers to stop using the words "Inside Information" and stop bending company arms. Let's turn on the light and see for ourselves. This is really a prime example of the SEC in action. A job well done. My Vote - YES for Proposed Regulation FD. John Fuchs
