RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES

	Years Ended December 31,

	2004		2003		2002		2001		2000

* The earnings for the years ended December 31, 2002 through 2000 were inadequate to cover total fixed charges. The coverage deficiencies for the years ended December 31, 2002 through 2000 were (in thousands): $63,192, $6,665,780 and $3,082,114, respectively.

     In computing the ratio of earnings to fixed charges, earnings have been based on income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes plus fixed charges. Fixed charges consist of interest, amortization of debt issuance costs and the portion of rental expense on operating leases attributable to interest.
