Hmmmm I've been here a long time with nothing much to say. till now. Seems to me we have two groups of people here. Those who have the stock and are doing nothing but waiting for the "Big Deal." And those just lingering around waiting to take a position right before the "Big Deal" is announced. Neither group seems to be happy with the status of the situation. Hello, is anybody out there? In all this back and forth explanation of why this is a such a once in a life time deal and why this is a total scam (read David S) , have you overlooked the obvious? This is a GREAT TRADING STOCK. Take a look at its chart. Take a look at is oscillations over the last few months. How many times has the opportunity presented itself to buy the stock low and sell high. After all isn't the #1 rule of traders, BUY LOW SELL HIGH? Geesh. Hell I don't mind admitting that I'm scalping as much money as I can out of this stock. Last sell of mine was at 15 5/8. Today I bought it all back at 14 1/8. Why does it have to be BOOM or BUST? If some of you are so unhappy with the situation why not scalp the stock? Here's the way I look at it. I buy the stock on dips, sell it when it moves up and I feel it has reached a resistance point, and then buy it back on the next dip. What's the worse case scenario? (No, not that, I will address that one in a sec.). The worse case scenario is you buy the stock on a dip and it continues to drop. SO WHAT? Come May we will have the news; so the stock will go back up. Big deal if I'm stuck with 1k shares 2k shares or whatever for the next 4.5 mos. In the long run it will pay off; or better yet in 1 week it will bounce up again; and I will sell it. Now the other case. I sell my stock; the news comes out over night, or after market and I'm left high and dry, right? No, I don't think so. I keep a core holding of CCSI that I won't sell till the end of the year or later. So why doesn't everyone just make the best out of the situation.? If you don't mind waiting more power to you. If you're tired sell and buy back, if you think this is all BOGUS, short the stock. Do anything but complain about the time table CCSI is on. Remember it's their time table we are abiding by; NOT OURS. p.s. I would like to thank everyone for their contributions to the thread, especially Janybird, Skippard, and Stephen. Regards, Rosendo

Stephen, the gist of my entire argument is contained in your last sentence... My point is, if the news is going to be that good, as I believe it will be, I believe you'll see buying interest well in advance of the news, and that in and of itself, is a reason to remain invested in order to benefit from the appreciation in the share price. For the momentum players, that is exactly the reason not to invest until you see the volume on the ask side increase and the price head higher. Increasing volume above the adv which is just north of 100,000 I believe would indicate that interest. Of course, only to be played by those who can watch the action. I agree, the value investors should continue to accumulate at this level as the lower price support continues to be at the 14 level. CCSI seems to be willing to trade in the 14-16 range until significant developments are realized. The stock split in Feb, if approved and authorized immediately upon that time will continue to push the business plan forward. I don't think Frank would suggest to his institutional buddies building a sizeable position until it could be done without creating havoc in the price.

Regarding the apppointment of Dr. Maisels to the medical advisory board of CCSI; Dr. Maisels is held in the highest esteem by his peers and associates as evidenced by statements made to me by my future brother in law, who is on staff at William Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak, MI., where Dr. Maisels is Chief of Staff - Pediatrics. This coincidence brought home the reality of the opportunity that exists with CCSI. Moreover, Dr. Maisels is not going to lend his name and expertise to anything that would diminish his standing in the medical community. We must have patience with the process that will enable CCSI to leapfrog from virtual unknown into prominence. The points made by Rosendo carry weight with me, as a fellow trader. For the investors out there, keep in mind how fast CCSI will move once the "definitive news" hits the wires. Those that have a position will "immediately reap the rewards". Those that buy in at that time will pay a large premium. Is that premium worth the use of the money for what could possibly be a very short time? Will you be able to extricate those funds from whatever investment they're in, in time to catch the bus? In my opinion, why leave a sure thing for a set of unknowns? Many thanks to the contributors to this thread... you know who you are.-:) Regards, ION$
