Date: 12/17/1999 10:27 AM Subject: Proposed Regulation FD I am an individual investor. I have always felt like I was at a considerable disadvantage in my investment decisions because I am not privy to information that analysts and others who curry the favor of companies are. I very much support full disclosure to the public, company information that is now given to the select few in advance. Let's level the playing field. Sincerely, William Kessler
