Subject: "Proposed Regulation FD" 

From:

Being a middle aged, "upper" lower income individual of of somewhat 
average intellegence, I must admit that I'm am not a high roller in the 
investment game.  I must applaud the efforts of the SEC in it's coarse 
of action with Regulation FD.  Formost in the mind of a man my age (57) 
is security during my retirement years.  It would be nice to think that 
I might someday have a chance to make meaningful investments to fit my 
needs based on accurate ( timely ) information, and not have to contend 
with the spoon fed dribble that is handed down by brokers. I don't mind 
feeding on the crumbs that fall from the elite tables, but to do this, I 
have to be allowed into the kitchen.
"Sec", thanks for looking out for us little guys!

Daniel Phillips
