>I 100% believe that the huge money will be here after the 6th quarter of triple digit growth, but I also believe that the early birds will begin showing up around 3. Without specific numbers, I believe we have 2 in a row... and any quarterly or monthly YOY update would probably be enough confirmation to signal early bird investors to accumulate. < Spoken by a very-early bird! I'm one of those, too. It has taken a long time for electrohyperthermia and heat-ablation to be proven (to doctors, that is -- I think engineers are more apt to clearly see the potential, ahead of massive clinical proof). But these therapies are now moving into main-stream practice. I hope you are right about "investors". I don't see BSD Medical as a particularly good short-term trading stock -- relative to its potential for long-term oriented buyers. Anyway, I get short-tempered with "daytraders", as I think they are basically spastic nuts -- re BSDM, at least. BTW, I'm presently trying to become acquainted enough with a recent scientific article (Science, 1 Feb 2013) to be able to comment sensibly on it. Here is the "tickler": "Intratumor heterogeneity is a major obstacle in successfully eradicating tumors." In other words, tumors are (typically? -- all?) aggragates of differing cells. So, a drug -- or even a combo of drugs -- may only end up (after some time has passed) changing the population percentages. Tumor killing by high temperatures would not have this issue! -- a VERY wide spectrum of cells (ALL, I believe) are susceptible to death by high temperatures! The above consideration augers VERY well for hyperthermia and ablation. More on this, later.
