**********THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE**********
Although I do no want to engage the ruffians who are trying to disturb the COII message board, I do want to be sure that investors know the truth.
HISTORY I began investing in COII a couple years ago with many reservations—I looked at Dave Johnston’s 1980’s lawsuit very carefully, investigated the military record of Richard Secord, spoke with people who knew Dave Packer, and read every document ever published by and about COII. Then I studied the background of their physicians, Yuri Parisky, MD and Manuel Viamante, MD. I called the USC Norris cancer center and Mt. Sinai hospital. Not only was I convinced that they were decent human beings, I became convinced that they had strong intellectual credentials and impeccable moral character. I could find no evidence of any wrongdoing.
DAVE JOHNSTON Mr. Johnston had, like many of his peers started a tax shelter that was outlawed by the government and this, as is customary in America, was followed by lawsuits. I recall Bill Marriott (of Marriott hotel fame) was caught in the same morass and lost billions of dollars following waves of lawsuits. Mr. Johnston has always been very honest about this affair and decided, in the end, to absorb the vast majority of the financial losses rather than engage in any dishonest shenanigans. I was surprised to learn that Mr. Johnston has a very large, loving family that regularly goes to church. Everybody I spoke with about him would rave about his honesty and character.
RICHARD SECORD Mr. Secord, I came to realize, was not only a distinguished military veteran, but also rose through the military ranks until he achieved the honor of being assistant secretary of defense under president Reagan. During the Iran-contra investigations, he was one of the few honest soldiers who admitted that he helped the “freedom fighters” in his battle against communism and injustice.
DAVE PACKER Dave Packer spent years at TRW working in the space and defense systems area. He needed top secret clearance and was thoroughly investigated and found to have flawless character prior to taking on that role. The men running COII are not only OK, but are men of high moral character, impeccable honestly, and patriotic values. You can be assured of this if you do your own research.
THE TECHNOLOGY Then, I began to study the research literature on thermal imaging and the techniques being used by COII and came to a startling conclusion—they had a revolutionary approach to the diagnosis of breast cancer! The CTI machine is nothing like old-fashioned thermography. Instead, it is a sophisticated imaging bed that has within it, an awe-inspiring technology that is able to distinguish between almost infinitesimal heat differences.
PATENTS Although our unruly visitors have taken potshots at COII’s lack of patents, that is far from the truth. In fact, COII’s first patent covers ALL ASPECTS of the bed, including the camera, table, and imaging system. I cannot tell you everything about the way images are taken, but I can tell you that this patent covers a unique temperature challenge that is so space age and state of the art, that it is almost impossible that a competitor will have a chance of unseating their technological lead. This system was originally conceived of by Mr. Secord who, as you might know, was a mathematician and scientist prior to becoming a decorated military man. Patents are pending on the sophisticated computer software at this time and they have a stack of patents on their cameras, received when they purchased Bales, Inc.
THE MATHEMATICAL IMAGING SYSTEM The COII imaging system is then connected to a high speed computer that mathematically analyzes the probability that any temperature differential is cancerous. This mathematical algorithm takes the guess work out of radiological analysis—the system can almost diagnose cancer without the possibility of human error in interpretation. The system is so sophisticated that it can be used to differentiate cancer at an accuracy of almost 99% (sensitivity). Or, it can be used as a screening device (specificity) like mammogram with an accuracy of almost 99%. However, in real life, the machine needs to be calibrated (I don’t want to get into statistics here) so that it has a BLEND of sensitivity (true positives) and specificity (true negatives). Thus, you will probably hear them talk about the eventual accuracy as being 90% (so that it can be sensitive AND specific). Anyway you slice it, it is FAR more accurate than mammgram. In fact, their statistics are so much more accurate than mammograms that approval by the FDA is almost a sure thing—I have never seen a medical device that has NO SIDE EFFECTS and is DRAMATICALLY superior to a product on the market, be denied FDA approval. The COII imaging system is so far superior to anything on the market that thoughts about them NOT getting approval is almost laughable. Remember that COII was originally told by the FDA that they did NOT NEED approval to use the machine! The FDA was impressed by their integrity when they were told that COII management would not use the system until they received full FDA approval.
COMMTTED INVESTORS I have been accused as being a paid tout of COII—nothing could be further from the truth. However, having a large slug of shares that rose from .70 to the present price has left me in a very comfortable financial position. This profit has repaid me many times over allowing me the time and ability to help this company print the truth and protect my friends, colleagues and scores of small investors (especially women) who KNOW that the world needs an alternative to uncomfortable, inaccurate mammograms. In our hearts most of us know that the world needs help solving the cancer crisis now—all of us, as investors, are part of that solution.
THE SHORT SELLERS—ANOTHER KIND OF CANCER Two years ago when I first heard about COII, I was told by my broker that one day, the short sellers would come on the boards and spread lies and hateful half-truths. I was told that they would use smear tactics and everything possible to protect their HUGE short position—now I am finally seeing it happen. The rise from .60 to over $10.00 has put them in such a precarious financial position that a number of small brokerages are in danger of being completely bankrupt—they are literally fighting for their lives.
They were told three months ago that COII would be applying for NASDAQ large cap status because COII was required, by NASDAQ rules, to inform all of their market makers of this occurrence. It takes 3 months on average for NASDAQ to bestow approval. Isn’t it funny that the hooligans showed up the week before COII would be expected to have their approval? At this point they will do anything and say anything to convince investors that COII is a scam; they must drive the price down or be forced into bankruptcy. That is the reason behind their hateful, vitriolic graffiti. Who do you want to believe, a band of punks that refuses to divulge their true identity, or a management team composed of honest, hard working, moral men and women? It is no coincidence that one of their buddies is now spending a few months in jail, following prosecution by the SEC. I would expect that more of them will end up spending time in stony lonesome.
Remember, that COII achieved “fully reporting status” by the SEC over one year ago and had their books and management team dissected under their watchful scrutiny. Any impropriety would have been discovered at that time, believe me.
WHAT CAN YOU DO? My advice is to use your own judgement. Although, I cannot tell anyone what to do, I can tell you what I will do. If the short sellers are successful in driving the price lower, I will buy larger numbers of shares the lower it goes. The profit potential will become staggering as it drops from here.
ANYTHING ELSE? Yes. You can report any potential violation of SEC rules to their enforcement division. Just copy that post that you believe violates present legal standards and email it to them. Their email address is:
enforcement@sec.gov
THE FUTURE In the very near future you will see COII achieve full NASDAQ large cap status and you will hear that they have achieved approval of module 2. Large institutions (I know of some personally) will be buying bushels of COII stock and the short sellers will see this sick endgame coming to an end. Providence hospital will soon be opening their doors to worker’s compensation patients, right on the doorsteps of our nation’s capital. Then the road is clear for the submission of modules 4 and 5 and final approval by the FDA. Then the doors to success will swing wide open--The Mexican consortium will be ordering many more systems, we will probably hear about sales to the Middle East and then Europe, and COII will be front page news all across the country.
This is an exciting time for all COII employees and shareholders as we witness, not just approval of their system, but a medical revolution to protect women all over the world from the ravages of breast cancer.
Good luck to all.
I will regularly re-post this today to help innocent investors learn the truth.
