Subject: Proposed Regulation FD: File No. S7-31-99 Date: 07/19/2000 2:37 PM SEC, I am an EDS shareholder who recently took the stock plunge only to later find out, over the next few days, that forecasts were lowered. Making the rules fair for all investors seem like an obvious conclusion to me! My question is simply - Who the hell made the rule in the first place that allows biased dissemination of information? Governing bodies should rule fairly - dam the big money lobbyists and their influence over bureaucrats with narrow vision. Here is a chance to do the right thing. Sincerely, Raymond Oliver
