Date: 12/16/1999 9:37 PM Subject: Proposed Regulatioin FD I support the idea that all disclosure should be available to all public parties and persons at the same time. Selective advanced disclosure is a shame which gives privileged parties the right to take advantage of those not having such privilege. I am asking that the SEC establish regulations that stop this practice immediately. Let good business sense, sound investment practices, and fairness rule in our marketplace.
