From: Jan Barak [jngccco1@mindspring.com] Sent: Monday, March 29, 2004 6:41 PM To: rule-comments@sec.gov Subject: S7-19-03 Please support the ruling that would allow shareholders to place a nominee on the ballot for director. Investors should have a say in who is on the board of directors other than the current option (?) of voting for the nominees that the directors put forth. Thank you for your consideration.
