      Re: SR-BSE-2002-15, Boston Stock Exchange, Inc. Filing to Establish 
	  Trading Rules for the Boston Options Exchange Facility 

      Dear Mr. Katz: 

      I want to encourage the SEC to swiftly approve the BOX Exchange.  This 
	  practical model will be a welcomed alternative to existing structures 
	  and will advance the concept of a more transparent and level playing 
	  field for all participants.  

      Thank you.
