I saw some hype in the Dick Davis Digest of Premier Laser Systems (PSLIA) saying that Premier's laser dental drill may replace the drills now in use. Was wondering if COHR had any part of this action.

H Thomas: Thx for that confirmation. Individuals who thrive in a rational environment find it hard to understand that the stock market can be quite irrational. A perfect example are the Drilling Stocks. That said, I have learnt to look at valuations only on the basis of their past history without further questioning the reasoning. Unfortunately one needs extraordinary patience to capture a particular stock at its one time low. After a long wait&watch ,I picked up a bunch of COHR at an average low P/E. That strategy proved no good and I am now in the same boat as many on this thread. Trust COHR will improve its performance next year. Good luck.!
