Date: 03/21/2000 6:23 PM Subject: Proposed Regulations FD I agree with your proposed regulations requiring companies to make all information immediately available to all of the public not just a selected few. This seems to fall in the same area as insider trading. Why is it legal to provide information to a selected few if insiders must disclose their trades prior to execution. For the market to work properly the public must not be discriminated against. Please continue in your efforts to effect these regulations. Joel T Whitener
