Date: 12/17/1999 8:03 AM Subject: Proposed Regulation FD, Comments To: SEC Chairman Levitt, Congratulations on proposing the regulation to open the flow of "insider" information from Companies to ALL investors at the SAME TIME. The present practice of a companies selectively giving insider information to brokers and analysts, before public disclosure, is surely one of the most unfair practices. Thanks for proposing to level the playing field, for me and other "SECOND CLASS" investors who must now do their own research without all the facts the "FIRST CLASS" brokers, institutions, and analysts get before us. signed David J Harnett 1605 Columbia Ave. Port Royal, SC 29936 or harnett@gosiggy.com
