Item 4. Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

     The Registrant reported on its Form 8-K filed April 9, 1999, that effective
March 18, 1999, the Registrant  dismissed the accounting firm of Levine Hughes &
Mithuen Inc., Englewood,  Colorado, as its principal independent accountant. The
Registrant's  financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997,
were prepared assuming that the Registrant will continue as a going concern.

     The  Registrant's  Form 8-K filed April 9, 1999,  further  reported that on
March 18, 1999,  the Registrant  engaged James E. Scheifley & Associates,  P.C.,
Denver,  Colorado,  as its new  principal  independent  accountant  to audit the
Registrant's  financial  statements.  Neither the  Registrant  nor anyone on its
behalf has  consulted  James E.  Scheifley  &  Associates,  P.C.  regarding  the
application  of accounting  principles to a specific  completed or  contemplated
transaction,  or the  type of  audit  opinion  that  might  be  rendered  on the
Registrant's financial statements.

     The  Registrant's  Form 8-K filed April 9, 1999,  further reported that, in
addition,  the Form 8-K was being  filed to  disclose  (1) that the  decision to
change  accountants was recommended  and approved by the  Registrant's  Board of
Directors;  (2) that none of the former  accountant's  reports on the  financial
statements  of the  Registrant  for  either of the last two years  contained  an
adverse  opinion or a disclaimer or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty,
audit scope, or accounting principles;  and (3) that during the Registrant's two
most recent fiscal years,  there were not any disagreements with Levine Hughes &
Mithuen Inc. on any matter of  accounting  principles  or  practices,  financial
statement  disclosure or auditing scope or procedure or "reportable events" with
the former  accountants.  A copy of a letter from Levine  Hughes & Mithuen Inc.,
Englewood,   Colorado,  the  Registrant's  former  accountants,   stating  their
agreement  or   disagreement   with  these   disclosures  was  attached  to  the
Registrant's Form 8-K filed April 9, 1999, as Exhibit 16.1.

     This Form 8-K/A is being filed to report that during the  Registrant's  two
most recent fiscal years and any  subsequent  interim  period  through March 18,
1999, the date of such dismissal, there were no disagreements with Levine Hughes
& Mithuen Inc. on any matter of accounting  principles  or practices,  financial
statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not
resolved to the  satisfaction of Levine Hughes & Mithuen Inc., would have caused
it to make a reference to the subject matter of the  disagreement  in connection
with its report.

     This  Form  8-K/A  is  being  filed  to  further  report  that  during  the
Registrant's  two most recent  fiscal years and any  subsequent  interim  period
through March 18, 1999, the date of such dismissal,  none of the following kinds
of events occurred:

     (a) Levine Hughes & Mithuen Inc.'s having  advised the Registrant  that the
internal  controls  necessary for the Registrant to develop  reliable  financial
statements do not exist;

     (b) Levine  Hughes & Mithuen  Inc.'s  having  advised the  Registrant  that
information has come to Levine Hughes & Mithuen Inc.'s attention that has led it
to no longer be able to rely on management's  representations,  or that has made
it  unwilling  to be  associated  with  the  financial  statements  prepared  by
management;

                                      -2-
<PAGE>


     (c)(1) Levine Hughes & Mithuen  Inc.'s having advised the Registrant of the
need to expand  significantly  the scope of its audit,  or that  information has
come to the  accountant's  attention  during the  Registrant's  two most  recent
fiscal yars and any  subsequent  interim period through March 18, 1999, the date
of such dismissal,  that if further  investigated may (i) materially  impact the
the fairness or reliability of either:  a previously  issued audit report or the
underlying  financial  staements,  or the financial  statements  issued or to be
issued  covering the fiscal  periods  subsequent  to the date of the most recent
financial  staements covered by an audit report (including  information that may
prevent  it from  rendering  an  unqualified  audit  report  on those  financial
statements),  or  (ii)  cause  it  to  be  unwilling  to  rely  on  management's
representations or be associated with the Registrant's financial statements, and
(2) due to Levine Hughes & Mithuen  Inc.'s  dismissal,  or for any other reason,
Levine Hughes & Mithuen Inc. did not so expand the scope of tis audit or conduct
such further investigation; or

     (d)(1) Levine Hughes & Mithuen Inc.'s having  advised the  Registrant  that
information  has come to Levine Hughes & Mithuen  Inc.'s  attention  that it has
concluded  materially  impacts  the  fairness  or  reliability  of either  (i) a
prevously issued audit report or the underlying  financial  statements,  or (ii)
the  financial  statements  issued or to be issued  covering the fiscal  periods
subsequent  to the date of the most recent  financial  statements  covered by an
audit report  (including  information  that,  unless resolved to Levine Hughes &
Mithuen  Inc.'s  satisfaction,  would prevent it from  rendering an  unqualified
audit  report on those  financial  statements),  and (2) due to Levine  Hughes &
Mithuen  Inc.'s  dismissal,  or for any  other  reason,  the  issue has not been
resolved to Levine Hughes & Mithuen Inc.'s satisfaction prior to its dismissal.
