15.
We have disclosed that we currently have no commitments for debt or equity financing. As such, we have disclosed that we can provide no assurances that we will be successful in obtaining financing or satisfying all required costs.
Summary Compensation Table
16.
We have expanded our disclosure about Mr. Cohen’s salary. In reading this be advised that the agreement covering this matter states that “Mark Cohen, Issuer’s President will devote 15% of his time to Issuer and will be paid an annual salary of $30,000 by Issuer commencing July 1, 2007.” In this Agreement, we are defined as the Issuer. Therefore, we, and not Actuarial Ideas, will pay this salary directly.
17.
We are obligated to disclose the details of Mr. Cohen’s salary commitment and not the rationale underlying it and it has been arbitrarily determined. The fact is that the salary obligation is extremely low given Mr. Cohen’s experience and the extent to which our success depends upon him.
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
18.
We have modified the disclosure to indicate that the promoters of AI are our president, Mark Cohen, and our two other officers and directors, Richard C. Cohen and Elizabeth A. Cohen.
Legal Matters
19.
We have disclosed non-contingency nature of legal fees in “Liquidity” third paragraph.
Balance Sheet

Accounts receivable has been carved out from Actuarial Ideas and reflected in the stand-alone financial statements.

The implied management fee has been reversed. The financials have been revised.
22.
Cost of sales has been reallocated to both cost of sales and general and administrative expenses.
23.
A pro forma income tax expense or benefit has been provided for all four periods presented.

24.
The requested changes have been made.
Note 1 - Organization
25.
The requested pro forma data has been presented.
Note 3 – Stockholders’ Equity
26.
The incorporation of AI Document Services, Inc. as a separate entity involved Mr. Cohen separating a segment of a business owned by him for many years and incorporating that segment as a separate legal entity. The transaction involved entities owned by Mr. Cohen. There were no, and could be no, inducements offered to Mr. Cohen. He did not give up nor receive anything in the transaction that he did not already own and control. Note 3 has been edited and clarified.
Miscellaneous
a.
All references to NASD as relates to Rule 211 filing have been revised so as to indicate its new name the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”).
b.
We have also indicated that the 3 officers and directors by virtue of being declared underwriters may not utilize Rule 144. See “Selling Stockholders” and “Plan of Distribution”.
