<hr><P><b>Comments:</b></p>I strongly Agree with the following

-Platinum/base metal  jewelry should not be allowed to use the term &quot;Platinum.&quot;

-That the current FTC proposal is unworkable in terms of industry implementation and would be confusing to consumers.

-That it's not in harmony with international standards

-The submission will also reiterate a suggestion the Task Force made in 2005,when the matter was first raised, which is to reccommend that the FTC consider a new and different name for jewelry comprised of platinum and base metals. </body></html>
