Form 8-K filed March 8, 2005 File No. 033-21537-D Dear Mr. Kandalepas: We have reviewed your filing and have the following comments. Where indicated, we think you should revise your document in response to these comments. If you disagree, we will consider your explanation as to why our comments are inapplicable or a revision is unnecessary. Please be as detailed as necessary in your explanation. After reviewing this information, we may or may not raise additional comments. Please understand that the purpose of our review process is to assist you in your compliance with the applicable disclosure requirements and to enhance the overall disclosure in your filing. We look forward to working with you in these respects. We welcome any questions you may have about our comments or on any other aspect of our review. Feel free to call us at the telephone numbers listed at the end of this letter. 1. We note you have engaged the accounting firm of Tanner LC. We also note that Tanner LC is not registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB). Section 102 of the Sarbanes- Oxley Act of 2002 makes it unlawful after October 22, 2003 for any person that is not a registered public accounting firm (i.e. registered with the PCAOB) to prepare or issue, or to participate in the preparation or issuance of, any audit report (or review report) with respect to any issuer. You must engage a new accountant that is a publicly registered accounting firm to perform review or audit work for the company. Please file a new Item 4 Form 8-K after you have engaged new accountants that are registered with the PCAOB. Provide all of the disclosures required by Item 304 of Regulation S-K regarding the period of engagement of Tanner LC which should include an Exhibit 16 letter. General We urge all persons who are responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of the disclosure in the filing reviewed by the staff to be certain that they have provided all information investors require for an informed decision. Since the company and its management are in possession of all facts relating to a company`s disclosure, they are responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of the disclosures they have made. In connection with responding to our comment, please provide, in writing, a statement from the company acknowledging that: * The company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; * Staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to staff comments do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing; and * The company may not assert staff comments as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States. In addition, please be advised that the Division of Enforcement has access to all information you provide to the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance in our review of your filing or in response to our comments on your filing. Please file your supplemental response and amendment via EDGAR in response to these comments within 10 days of the date of this letter.
