Transparency and input from all affected parties (including small public investors and their advocates) before rules and laws are implemented, seems to me to be a basic requirement of a free and fair government. I request that you deny the NASD request for accelerated approval and I request that the SEC publish the NASD filing and afford an opportunity for public comment. As an investor, a parent of investors, and the advocate for investors, I oppose the request for accelerated approval. The SEC is charged with the responsibility of doing what and for whom?

Thank you.
