Dear Mr. McDowell:

We have reviewed your filing and have the following comments. Where indicated, we think you should revise your document in response to these comments.

In some of our comments, we may ask you to provide us with supplemental information so we may better understand your disclosure. After reviewing this information, we may or may not raise additional comments.

Please understand that the purpose of our review process is to assist you in your compliance with the applicable disclosure requirements and to enhance the overall disclosure in your filing. We look forward to working with you in these respects. We welcome any questions you may have about our comments or on any other aspect of our review. Feel free to call us at the telephone numbers listed at the end of this letter.

Please explain the features of a "fully functional" system.

We are asking whether Mr. Lysiak was hired on contingent basis, will receive an interest in Bulldog or was a promoter or other related party of Bulldog.
