Dear Sirs, dear Ladies,
I'm an indivdual investor trading OTC:BB stocks. We need your help in
stopping the Market Maker manipulations and games. They appear to making
markets alright, for themselves, from my perspective. One stock in
particular I'm involved in PCBM, I'm completely astonished at the
vigorous price controls and beligerent manipulation, in my opinion, of
this OTC:BB stock. I think, if you'll investigate for yourself and do
due-dilligence you will effectively come to the same conclusion. I'm
just an average citizen, middle income investor, trying to make the
market work, but when the playing field is not level and the market
makers are artificially manipulating and holding down stocks it is very
difficult. Naturally, this is all just my opinion. This is where I need
your help. You have been divinely placed in a position of authority to
confirm or deny these allegations and accusations and uphold the honor
and trust people in the whole world have placed at your discretion.
Please allow me to state for the record, I'm of the opinion we need more
effective guideline's and regulation's of the short selling on NASD for
the OTC:BB stock's. And I fully support your effort's and commend you
for having the wherewithal to understand these artificial manipulations
and price controls must stop. Thanks in advance for all the good work
you do.

Sincerely,
Klaus Rudolph
