To all:

Here is a SEC article I found in the Houston Chronicle business section on Friday,
November 18. This article should be of MAJOR importance to all investors that
occasionally use the SEC EDGAR DATABASE to find out info regarding insider
sales, 10Q's, 10K's and more information.

Please get this post out to everyone you know. I would like for the SEC to actually
hear from investors that they don't approve of this action.

Here's the article

"SEC seeks proposals to overhaul Edgar"

"WASHINGTON - The Securities and Exchange Commission said Thursday it
requested proposals for the overhaul of its electronic corporate document system,
known as EDGAR.
The EDGAR system, which began as a pilot program in 1984, was completely
phased-in last May. The SEC said it wants proposals re-evaluating the current system
and exploring further privatization of the program.
Under recently passed federal legislation, the SEC is required to consider further
privatization of EDGAR."

This sounds like lobbying to me!!!!!!

The big boys with money are getting upset because we are able to do better research
then they are!!!!!!!!!

Here is the SEC response address via the internet. If you would wish to complain, feel
free. I already have. To those that don't have the time, I will put a generic complaint at
the bottom if you don't want to write yourself.

SPEAK UP to these buttheads. This is OUR MONEY at risk here. INFORMATION
IS POWER IN THE NEXT decade and we must protect our interests from others
seeking to gain from us.

Here is the complaint. Just copy and paste. It will take 30 seconds for those crunched
for time.

response

I am protesting the further privatization of the EDGAR DATABASE. As a taxpaying
citizen, my tax dollars have gone towards funding this project and I have benefited
from it tremendously. I do not enjoy special interests trying to gain control of this
PUBLIC service for their benefit. We, individual investors of the UNITED STATES
OF AMERICA, are protesting such a decision from our government. Don't mess up a
good thing!

I shall be pasting this message elsewhere to inform others of this horrible action
committed by our government. Please do so also.
