Subject: Proposed Regulation FD

As an individual investor, I am delighted to see the SEC taking action to 
promote a level playing field.  One of the most important reasons why our 
country and our economy have thrived, while others have languished is the 
quality of information provided to investors both large and small.  Full 
Disclosure allows each of us to make intelligent decisions on how we wish to 
deploy our capital.
     
Thank you for your efforts to provide a truly fair investment environment.
     
Sincerely,
Deborah J. Fields
