From: Doug Vaughn [doug@alltransco.com] Sent: Thursday, November 13, 2003 1:40 PM To: rule-comments@sec.gov Subject: S7-23-03 I hope that Reg SHO is enacted soon. As an individual investor, I can not purchase any OTCBB stocks until I have assurance that the 'market' is not corrupt. Given that Universal Express (USXP) has already proven in court that the 'naked shorting' problem exists, Reg SHO should be implemented as soon as possible. Thank you for listening.
