Dear Chairman Levitt:
     
Thank you for your stand on Full Disclosure.  As an individual investor 
without a great deal of wealth or status, I feel I should have fair access 
to the same corporate information as the professional institutions doling 
out investment advise.  These are, after all, "public" companies that we are 
discussing.  In order for the public to effectively invest in an open 
market, we must have access to all pertinent information concerning the 
companies that we are looking to invest in.
     
Select Disclosure is not only bad for individual investors, it is bad for 
the market as a whole.  It is, in all reality, withholding information from 
people who currently own, or wish to own, a portion of a given company 
through stock.  This is obviously not a fair and just practice.
     
Thank you doing your best to fight for fairness for all investors.
     
Sincerely,
     
Virginia L. Weilandich
St. Clair, MO
