      File No. 333-120552

Dear Mr. Fleischer:

	We have the following comments on your filing.  We may have
additional accounting comments.

Schedule TO-I

1. We are unable to locate the disclosure required by Item 1003(c)
of Regulation M-A.  Please advise

Registration Statement

General

2. Supplementally explain to us when, and in what type of
transaction, the original notes were first issued.

Cover Page

3. Please specify the amount of common stock issuable upon
conversion of the new securities in the calculation of registration
fee table and include this amount on the cover page of the prospectus.

Cover Page

4. The preliminary prospectus disseminated to security holders in
an early commencement exchange offer must be complete and contain all
required information.  Accordingly, please revise the red herring
legend to accurately reflect that the information is complete.
Please see question I.E.2 of the July 2001 Supplement to the Division
of Corporation Finance`s Manual of Publicly Available Telephone
Interpretations, which is available on our website at www.sec.gov.

5. Include a brief description of your reasons for undertaking the
exchange offer.

Summary, page 3

6. Revise your disclosures to describe, in plain English, the
following:

* Describe the contingent conversion provisions of the Existing
Debentures so that it`s clearer how EITF Issue No. 04-8 applies,
including, for example, the implied conversion price and market
price trigger.

* Clarify that the exchange will result in the Company reporting
higher EPS (retroactively and prospectively) than if the exchange
did not occur.  Give an example of what the effect on 2003 reported
EPS would be if the exchange did not occur.

Summary of Certain Differences between the Existing Debentures and
the New Debentures, page 7

7. Revise the summary of material differences of the debentures to
summarize the material risks of the new debentures where those
risks differ from the risks of the outstanding debentures.  In this
regard, we note that your disclosures beginning on page 10 appear to
describe risks associated with the new debentures only without
contrasting them to risks currently existing under the outstanding
debentures.

8. In addition, describe the effect on the Company`s liquidity and
capital resources from the cash settlement provisions of the new
debentures, and discuss the means by which the Company reasonably
expects to finance the cash requirement resulting from conversion
of the new debentures.

Forward Looking Statements, page 13

9. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act does not apply to
statements made in connection with a tender offer.  See Section
21E(b)(2)(C) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  Please
eliminate any reference to the safe harbor and the Act.  See also
Q&A No. 2 in Section I.M. of the Division of Corporation Finance`s
Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations, which is
Available on our website at www.sec.gov.

10. Delete the statement that you have no obligation to update
forward-looking information.  In that alternative, explain how
this position is consonant with your disclosure obligations.  See
Rule 13e-4(e)(3).

Selected Consolidated Financial Data, page 16

11. Revise to include earnings per share data for each period
presented.

Purpose of the Exchange Offer, page 18

12. Expand your disclosure to discuss the reasons underlying your
offer in greater detail, including a discussion of EITF 04-08.

Conditions for Completion of the Exchange Offer, page 22

13. We note that you terminate the offer in the event a conditions
is triggered "regardless of the circumstances giving rise to the
failure of the conditions.  Allowing acts or omissions by the company
to trigger a condition to the offer may render the offer illusory in
that the circumstances giving rise to the existence of a condition
are within the control of the company.  Please confirm your
understanding of our position.

14. Given the current situation in Iraq and the recent escalation
of hostilities there, we are concerned that your offer condition
relating to "war or armed hostilities" is drafted so broadly and
generally as to make it difficult to determine whether it has been
"triggered" by events as they occur. Please tailor your condition
so that the security holders may objectively verify when it has been
triggered.  For example, is this condition effective if any such
event has a material adverse effect on the company?

15. Please revise your disclosure on the top of page 23 to clarify
that in the event you waive a condition, you will waive it for all
stockholders.   Make a corresponding clarification in Instruction
8 of your Letter of Transmittal.

Accounting Treatment, page 23

16. Confirm supplementally, if true, that you applied the guidance
in EITF Issue No. 96-19 with respect to your accounting treatment for
the exchange transaction

Dealer Manager, page 23

17. You state that Banc of America Securities will be paid
"customary fees"  Revise your disclosure to quantify the compensation
as required by Item 1009 of Regulation M-A for each entity named in
this section.

Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations, page 45

18. Rather than refer to "certain" tax consequences in your
heading and the disclosure that follows, please refer to "material"
tax consequences

19. We note that the tax consequences of the transaction are
uncertain and may be material to an investment decision.  Please
obtain an opinion of counsel and revise the disclosure to clarify
that it reflects the opinion of counsel.  We may have further
comments.  See Item 601(b)(8) of Regulation S-K.   When rendering
its opinion, counsel`s opinion should be clear as to the degree of
uncertainty associated with the exchange offer.  In order to
expedite the review process, we recommend that you contact the staff
for assistance if necessary.

Where you can find more information

20. You state that you incorporate by reference all future filings
until the date of expiration.  Please advise us of your authority
for such "forward" incorporation by reference.  We note that Schedule
TO does not expressly authorize forward incorporation by reference;
in fact, the tender offer rules, including Rule 13e-4(c)(3), mandate
that new material information be provided in an amended Schedule
TO. Please revise as appropriate.

Exhibits

21. Please file your legality opinion as soon as practicable.  Be
advised that we will need adequate time to review your legality
opinion prior to declaring your registration statement effective.
