<<Actually, I feel Thomas and Andreas and the mailman are having a much more civil discussion than most threads would have given the circumstances. From what I see, lawsuits and bankruptcy should indeed be discussed here, as should the pluses like you suggest. The story is not all bad, but the risk-tolerance necessary to invest has gone up considerably>> Michael, first off, I would like to thank you for the info you posted. You have contributed termoundesly to this thread. I, and I'm sure others, view your presence in this thread as an asset that is irreplaceable. As to keeping this thread civil, I couldn't agree with you more. I thought Thomas was going to roast Gene for criticizing him for "conjuring up schemes." However, when I read his reply, I was impressed enough to post a message regarding his professionalism. However, you beat me to it. Let's keep it up guy's, things do look bleak, however, they sure could be bleaker also. Time will tell. Zead Mike, you speak chinese!!!!

Re: Expansion into other ethnic groups While I agree fully that this is good news and probably another savvy marketing/sales coup by OXHP, it in a way refelcts what I still keep thinking: There never was a problem with marketing and sales at OXHP. Management deserves full credit for spotting all these opportunites. The problem was and is on the managing and controlling side, the internal front so to say (OK, ,they have a problem with Medicare/-aid now, but that's about the only thing gone wrong on the sell side). They must now actually demonstrate that they can manage all these wonderful strategies they come up with. I sincerely wish they will execute on this one. Thomas
