Subject: continued press announcements

I am writing to express my strong support for the letter sent by Vivien 
Sadowski, president of the National Federation of Press Women, for continued 
press announcements of insider trading disclosures. Providing for website 
only disclosure of information is completely inadquate. As an investor and an 
editor, I do not have time to check the plethora of company website. While a 
newspaper article might spur me to seek additional details online, I rely 
heavily on traditional media for such basic news. Many have no other option 
but their local newspapers.
