Comment 4.
You have indicated that approximately $1.2 million of stock was issued for legal
and professional services during the year ended September 30, 2004. Please
supplementally tell us the nature of the services being provided.
Response:
Please refer to our letter dated April 5, 2005. As an additional response we
state the following:
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2004, the registrant issued S-8 stock as
compensation for professional services in lieu of cash compensation during a
period when the registrant was particularly cash-poor and could not have
otherwise paid for professional services. In the Form 10-KSB the registrant
states the cumulative value of the common stock registered on Form S-8 for these
purposes as approximately $1.2 million. This value is determined based on the
market price, determined by the "Last Sale" listed on the Over the Counter
Bulletin Board, of the registered stock at the time that the Form S-8
registration statement was filed.
Page 2
The recipients of the stock registered on Form S-8 receive this stock with the
intent to immediately sell the stock as reimbursement for prior services
rendered and/or as a retainer for anticipated services to be rendered in the
immediate future. Due to the relatively low daily trading volume of this stock,
the professional consultants receive the compensation stock in anticipation that
it will require several weeks to sell the stock, during which time the trading
volume significantly increases as a consequence of the issuance and subsequent
sales, thereby causing the stock value to steadily and significantly decline on
a price per share basis. Due to a combination of the declining value and
necessary brokerage fees associated with these sales, the total compensation in
actual dollar value that the consultants receive for their professional services
is significantly less that that reported on Form S-8 and later on the 10-KSB and
10-QSB filings, generally decreasing to a value we estimate to be between one
quarter to one third of that stated by the registrant in its filings.
For the Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2004, the Otto Law Group performed legal
services for the registrant including tasks undertaken to ensure the
registrant's compliance with the rules and regulations of the SEC, the State of
Texas, and the NASD, and drafting proposed agreements for business acquisitions
and reorganizations including necessary preliminary and supplemental agreements.
The Otto Law Group also served as legal advisor as to the structuring of
transactional matters and in connection with risk and liability assessment of
corporate transactions. Additionally, as corporate counsel, the Otto Law group
advised on matters regarding corporate governance, drafted documents to effect
the registrant's implementation of corporate governance and performed legal
services in connection with matters involving potential litigation and
liability.
David M. Otto of Saratoga Capital Partners, Inc., provided consulting services
to Registrant through Saratoga Capital Partners, Inc. David M. Otto is also the
founder of The Otto Law Group. Saratoga Capital Partners, Inc., provided
consulting services for the registrant regarding the structuring of corporate
governance, capitalization and transactional matters in order optimize
third-party financing opportunities for the Registrant. Saratoga Capital
Partners, Inc., additionally, advised Registrant on developing its business
concept to position Registrant based on industry-specific opportunities and
liabilities for growth.
Mark Triesch served General Counsel and as a Director to the registrant for the
period commencing September 1999 through November of 2003. As a director and
General Counsel to the registrant, Mr. Triesch provided legal services in
connection with, and advised the registrant regarding, transactional matters and
in connection with risk and liability assessment. Further, Mr. Triesch, as a
director of the registrant, maintained a management and advisory role concerning
the day-to-day operations for the aforementioned period. After resigning as
director on November 9 of 2003, Mr. Triesch continued to provide consulting
services regarding structuring of transactional matters and assistance in the
transition of day-to-day management of the registrant for the period ending in
May of 2004.

Comment 7.
You have indicated that approximately $1.5 million of stock was issued for legal
and professional services in February 2005. Please supplementally tell us the
nature of the services being rendered.
Response:
Please refer to our letter dated April 5, 2005. As an additional response we
state the following:
Stock registered on Form S-8 filed during the month of February 2005 was issued
as partial payment for all services performed between the months of December
2004 through February 2005 during a period when the registrant was particularly
cash-poor and could not otherwise pay for professional services, and as
currently describes the registrant's financial condition. In the Form 10-QSB
registrant states the cumulative value of the common stock registered on Form
S-8 for these purposes as value as approximately $1.5 million. This value is
determined based on the market price, determined by the "Last Sale" listed on
the Over the Counter Bulletin Board, of the registered stock at the time that
the Form S-8 registration statement was filed.
The recipients of the stock registered on Form S-8 receive this stock with the
intent to immediately sell the stock as reimbursement for prior services
rendered and/or as a retainer for anticipated services to be rendered in the
immediate future. Due to the relatively low daily trading volume of this stock,
the professional consultants receive the compensation stock in anticipation that
it will require several weeks to sell the stock, during which time the trading
volume significantly increases as a consequence of the issuance and subsequent
