Dear Sir / Madam,
     
I firmly believe that private investors should have access to all the same 
company information as institutions and analysts. Why protect the vested 
interests of big business? All investors should be able to participate in the 
market on an equal footing - and that means having the same information to work 
with.
     
Thanks and regards
