Date: 12/16/1999 3:11 PM Subject: Proposed Regulation FD Dear sirs, I'm writing in support of proposed regulation FD. As a shareholder in several punlic companies, I think it is unfair that I as an owner am not given information material to my investments at the same time as the big-time analysts. My money may not be much in absolute terms, but it's important to me and I have a right to know information pertinent to my investments at the same time as every other investor. yours sincerely, --Anthony Ragan
