registrant;

2.	Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
necessary to make the statements made, in light of the
circumstances under which such statements were made, not
misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;

for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and

15(e)) and internal control over financial reporting (as
defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the
registrant and have:

a)	Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or
caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be
designed under our supervision, to ensure that material
information relating to the registrant, including its
consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others
within those entities, particularly during the period in
which this report is being prepared;

b)	Designed such internal control over financial reporting,
or caused such internal control over financial reporting

controls and procedures and presented in this report our

   d) Disclosed in this report any change in the registrant?s
internal control over financial reporting that occurred
during the registrant?s most recent fiscal quarter (the

report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably
likely to materially affect, the registrant?s internal
control over financial reporting; and

5.	The registrant?s other certifying officer and I have disclosed,
based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over
financial reporting, to the registrant?s auditors and the audit
committee of Demeter?s board of directors (or persons
performing the equivalent functions):

a)	All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the
design or operation of internal controls over financial
reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect
the registrant?s ability to record, process, summarize, and
report financial information; and

b)	Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management
or other employees who have a significant role in the
registrant?s internal control over financial reporting.
