I totally oppose rule S7-25-97. NOTHING should be excluded from 
discussion at stockholders' open meetings. All business practices 
should be discussible. People have a right to know if the companies 
they put their money into are doing things that that they (the 
people, the stockholders) consider wrong. They have a right to pull 
their money if the companies do things with their money that they 
object to or violate their belief systems. After all, companies have 
a right to fire employees for doing things at work (and outside 
work, if you look at drug testing) that the company does not approve 
of. Why shouldn't the stockholders have the right to "fire" the company 
if the company does the same thing????
     
Please register my opinion as OPPOSING rule S7-25-97.
