are urged to be certain that they have included all information
required pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

      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 comment is inapplicable or a revision is
unnecessary.  Please be as detailed as necessary in your

We look forward to working with you in these respects.  We welcome

provide,
in writing, a statement from the company acknowledging that

* the company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the
disclosure in the filings;

comments do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action

* 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
