Subject: "Proposed Regulation FD" 

As a member of the investment community(i.e. be it that I am an indvidual and 
not a corporation) I would support all efforts of the SEC to have the free 
flow of information to all parties concerned, and not just a priveleged few. 
If we are to have a Market that controls itself by the products and services 
they hope to render it would only seem fair and Just that the individual have 
the ability to learn of Company events, whatever they may be, at the same 
time as those of Institutional investors.
     
Selective release of information is manipulation and therefor morally and 
eithically inappropriate in our society.  Rules governing the actions of all 
concerned should be aimed at fairness and equality.  Thank you for the 
opportunity to express my opinion on this Matter.
