About semi empirical energies in gaussian

[Thomas Lorenzen <tl[ AT ]theory.ki.ku.dk>]

     Hi'
    In gaussian 94 and gaussian 98 semi empirical
 calculations such as AM1 or PM3 produces energies as defined
 by the AM1 or PM3 semi empirical method. So it says in the
 manual along with the statement, that energy differences
 using the same method are in hartrees. However, does anybody
 have a clue about, where to actually find the total energy
 of a semi empirical calculation, or put in other words, what
 does it mean, that the energy is defined by the AM1 or PM3
 semi empirical method.
    Best Regards.
      Thomas.
