Happy Holiday's, Thought I'd post this for all to see. The pricing of the warrants appears exciting. If the company is successful executing their business strategy, 1998 could indeed mark a turnaround for IRSN. Let's keep our fingers crossed. The micro silicon ring gyro is currently undergoing testing of some kind. If it's successful, perhaps these warrants will have real value.
