Mark -
Welcome to the thread!
Well, I hate to start off by giving you a downer but I absolutely *agree* with your post.
The bladder test is - great science. Period.
I for one, don't have a clue what the *real* problem is.
I do know (5 yrs+ exp.) a fair amount about the marketing of consumer products, and therefore, the importance of being in the right distribution channels, at least, with respect to certain types of consumer goods.
I suspect - but am not certain - that this is part of the problem with the Bladder test. And I also suspect, given the length of time it took them to realize that they needed new marketing/management talent, that current top management is really ill-prepared to run a business; i.e. their deadbeats. I do not say this lightly or just to run at the mouth. I *really* mean it.
Lastly, the reason(s) I am hanging my hat on the colon thing is twofold:
(a) There is no real (as best I understand it) *current* competitor to this colon test. So, hopefully doctors will embrace it.
(b) By all means, if we can't get in the front door with the bladder product, lets have it 'tag a long' with the colon product - BUT ONLY AFTER - the colon product is established.
