Date: 03/22/2000 7:38 AM Subject: Proposed Regulation FD Dear Chairman Levitt, It's about time that selective disclosure is reduced. As president of a small consulting service, Washington Associates, I find the current state of affairs to be quite disconcerting. Not only in delayed financial information but also frequent disclosures by "whisper" that may be quite misleading. I urge implementation of Proposed regulation FD. Thank you for your attention, Peter W. Pfeiffer President, Washington Associates
