Hello Spunky71:
seems that no one has put a pencil to the numbers announced yesterday in the press release
I am looking for substance to analyze. Forward looking statements from CCSI, which has a firm record of not performing and the expenditure of megabucks from Lehman is not enough to put to pencil. First I need to know the immediate term conditions on the money to protect Lehman's money interest from loss. And I expect the next quarterly report will show not much change in performance by CCSI. I think you write testimonial PR quite well. So how many dollars were anteed toward purchase of CCSI devices by you and your colleagues?IOW, how many devices did your circle in the industry buy?
Regards,
m

<<Also it seems that no one has put a pencil to the numbers announced yesterday in the press release >>

Feel free to do so. But it may be tough since we have no idea what kind of margins CCSI is working with. I may try later if I get motivated, I have done it a couple of times in the past few months.

With respect to bashing, all I said was that it was blatantly apparent from the PR that CCSI expected the announcement to give the stock a pop so they could get more favorable pricing on the equity financing. And that it backfired. That's not bashing, just pointing out the language in the PR.

NEW PAIN-FREE TEST FOR JAUNDICE

For weeks, Darby Macfarlane cringed as she watched nurses draw blood from her newborn to monitor jaundice, a condition that affects 60 percent of all babies and could lead to brain damage if left untreated. Doctors traditionally use blood tests to track an infant's bilirubin count, but thanks to Macfarlane's effort to develop a noninvasive method, babies (and their parents) can now be spared the pain of needle pricks. Her Colormate TLc BiliTest, a handheld device that uses a light sensor to measure the yellow tinge in skin, recently won FDA clearance. The test is 95 percent accurate, costs about the same as a blood sample, and delivers results in minutes. "Its amazing what your maternal instincts will drive you to do" says Macfarlane. If your newborn requires treatment for jaundice, ask your doctor about the new tool.
