Our report dated March 31, 2009 contains an explanatory paragraph that states that the Company has incurred substantial recurring losses from operations, a deficiency in equity, has limited cash, cash equivalents, and short term securities, and illiquid investments in auction rate securities that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedules do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of that uncertainty.
 
Our report also refers to the Company’s adoption of an accounting standard issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board for the fair value of financial assets and liabilities in 2008.
