Hi Juli, you have to take comments from this guy very carefully. I followed his preffered stocks for two years. Companys like Omega Environmental, Panda Project, Cellular Tech, Howtek and so on. I lost a lot of money on that. It's right that Enrique Levy reports that their are no competitors have applied for an FDA approval for a machine like the AURORA and so they are two years ahead. But when I saw the timeline of their looking forward competitors habe time to make a good machine. Caprius will prepare the way for this technology. But when Competitors like Siemens comes on that Plan, they have enough money and marketing experience to roll up the market. And they enter this market, when they can tell that they have a machine within 6 or 9 month. Caprius must get the critical mass before any competitor enters the market place. If they don't meet that goal ... good night. They have no time to loose. I'm very strong invested in Caprius and Jack and Enrique have to do a lot to get my vote this year. Regards Joerg P.S. Today down 11% to $1.25.

Juli Joerg is got your question... I would like to add Joerg is very correct in that time is of the essence. I would also like to add that Fda regulations need to be met by any competition that materializes and there is some out there. Ge is interested in the company as a way to grow their business and if Siemens gets in we will find out wether GE is truly interested or not? They control a good size of the MRI market and would not give up market share easily. So there are a lot of interesting dynamics.. There may be other companies interested as well... jack should do his best for the sake of the shareholders which have been trhough hell with this investment.. The market is not large right now.. the easy apples low to the ground are but 500 scanners... and maybe 200 abroad.. roughly half a billion... so the big guys are not exactly tripping...about it. On the other hand to cover the female population properly there is need for 7000 scanners in the US by year 2000... or roughly 3.5 billion and that is significant.. then throw in the World and its more like 5 billion.. (my numbers..) luis
