Another quote directly from the SEC (bold face added by me):

...G. Extending the Short Sale Rule to Non-Exchange Listed Securities

Current short sale regulations cover securities that are either listed on an exchange or traded in the Nasdaq NMS. As a result, they cover securities that are generally characterized by high trading liquidity. In addition, these markets have a relatively high degree of transparency.

Securities traded in the OTC markets (e.g., Nasdaq Small Cap, the NASD's OTCBB, the Pink Sheets) are not subject to short sale restrictions. The staff frequently receives complaints alleging short sale abuses involving securities in the OTC markets. As a corollary to other concepts presented in this release, we seek comment on regulating short sales in this market sector. We recognize that Section 10(a) does not grant specific authority to the Commission to regulate short sales of securities not listed on a national exchange. Thus, regulations that extend short sale regulation to new market sectors would have to be adopted under other available statutory authority.

Q35. Should we consider extending short sale regulation to cover non-exchange listed securities?

Q36. If so, how should the new regulation restrict short sales? Does the current NASD short sale rule provide an applicable model for this purpose? ...

sec.broaddaylight.com is an interesting and useful site.

I'm unsure of the sociological significance, but the first of the most popular Q&A at the bottom of the referenced page is "1) Is the Andrew Carlssin case for real?" sec.broaddaylight.com

Those unfamiliar with Carlssin should refer to Message 18783181 for the original article on Carlssin - "'Time traveler' busted for insider trading".
