Robotic assisted heart surgery?
Now that is pretty interesting, and your
stock is doing very nicely today...for
other newbies to rbot here is a snip for
their news release

The ZEUS System enabled Damiano to perform delicate and critical suturing on the heart through tiny incisions. This provides a much less invasive approach to conventional open-heart surgery, which now requires a lengthy incision and splitting open the patient's breast bone to give surgeons access to the heart.

I think I am beginning to understand, that to play a news-
driven stock, the news has to have broad appeal...if
everybody can understand the release, I'd say the stock
is much more likely to run.

Take for instance my best pick this week...btrn (I know
I know, you're getting sick of hearing about this one,
I promise this is the last post in which I will mention
it). Anyway, here one of the most interesting snippets
from their press release:

In four of these five patients, chimeric immune systems were established without the development of severe GvHD. These patients showed potent anti-tumor activity against the cancerous blood cells, with four complete remissions and one partial remission in this subgroup, and retained the ability to mount immune responses against other foreign elements.

I would say most people will skim through that and think to
themselves "four patients, big deal--let me know when you've
cured 100"...and then they quickly fly away to another idea,
another stock.

Maybe I am just easily impressed, oh well.

Okay, here is a last check of the quotes before I
go off to work...astm at 3 1/2 of 1 1/2...rbot up 2 3/8ths
at 13 1/8--nice call DND! my btrn is doing okay, I'm two
bits in the money, yippie, ha ha.

Good luck all today, I wont be able to play...have
project to do at work:-(
