ITEM 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations

         The  following  discussion  should  be read  in  conjunction  with  the
selected financial data and the financial statements appearing elsewhere in this
report.

         Management Report General

         Following the  bankruptcy of its principal  distributor  in March 1995,
the Company  suspended all  operations  related to radon testing and analysis of
environmental  hazards.  In 1996,  the  Company  abandoned  its  efforts  in the
magazine publishing field.

         Results of Operations

         The only recurring item of income (loss) is the Company's equity in its
50% owned subsidiary, Printone Media.

         Liquidity and Capital Resources

         Working capital declined as a result of operating  expenses for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 in the amount of $8,700 and from the reclassification
of the amounts due to officers of $56,314 from long term to current liabilities.

         For the Company to become a viable entity,  it must operate  profitably
and raise  sufficient  capital  to fund its  operations.  The  Company is making
continuing efforts in this regard but there is no assurance of success.

         The  Company  previously   acquired  certain  preliminary  designs  for
potential developments of computer decision models for trading securities and in
the fields of medical  compliance and book publishing.  It is currently  seeking
financing  to  continue  the  developments  as well as to enter  into  strategic
partnerships  with other  companies  in these and  related  fields.  There is no
assurance of success in these endeavors.
