Date: 12/28/1999 9:33 AM Subject: Proposed Regulation FD I strongly support the proposed regulation. I have been hurt by not knowing information about a company at the same time as others and I have benefited by information I learned during conference calls companies host. Most individual investors do not have access to analysts and deserve to learn material information as soon as it is disclosed. I am an individual investor and also invest as a trustee of a pension plan. Sincerely, Neal J. Timon
