   1.                                                   We note that you
proposed revisions that include the square footage, principal use, and
                                                        markets served for
various facilities in response to prior comment one, in which we
                                                        advised of the
requirements to disclose information that will reasonably inform investors
                                                        as to the suitability,
adequacy, productive capacity, and extent of utilization of your
                                                        facilities, although
your revisions do not include details of capacity and utilization.

                                                        We continue to believe
that you will need to provide such details to comply with
                                                        Instruction 1 to Item
102 of Regulation S-K Please submit the revisions that you propose
                                                        to address these
concerns. We reissue prior comment one.

2.       We note that you have agreed to provide incremental disclosures in
future filings in
         response to prior comment three, including a tabulation showing eight
categories of
         revenue, information "regarding the reasons" for revenue fluctuations,
describing and "to
         the extent possible" quantifying material reasons for changes, and
indicating the extent to
         which fluctuations are attributable to changes in prices, changes in
the volume or
         amount of goods sold or to the introduction of new products.

         You also mention several types of information that may be encompassed
within such
         disclosures "to the extent possible" although you have not explained
how the disclosures
         in your annual report would need to change to comply with these
requirements.

         We continue to believe that you should include quantification of the
volumes of products
         sold in the various markets identified for each period and disclose
the extent to which
         material changes in net sales are attributable to changes in prices or
to changes in the
         volume or the amount of goods or services being sold.

         Please submit the specific disclosure revisions that you believe would
fully address the
         requirements in Item 303(b)(2) of Regulation S-K, with regard to the
information that
         pertains to the periods covered by your annual and subsequent interim
report. It should be
         clear how you quantify, compare and evaluate the volume of products
that are being
         produced and sold each period. We reissue prior comment three.

      You may contact Yolanda Guobadia, Staff Accountant, at (202) 551-3562 or
Karl Hiller,
Branch Chief, at (202) 551- 3686 with any questions.
