HMSC has a huge task to inform OB-GYNS and Primary Care Docs. This will take time and when the clinicals come in to confirm it will be off to the races. I have held long time avg. cost ~8.5/share. I took the opportunity to sell majority of shares when I saw most of thread leaning to sell on the news of BA and terrible market,(INTC). I hope to rebuy when the earnings are near or when the clinicals are due, or definitely when the first positive is found. I fear that the shorts could send the stock lower during the low volume days. I will post when I get news,until then best of luck!!! FCC

Maximilion: Just a couple of reasons I think you are at risk: 1. Why did the AMA turn thumbs down on thermal imaging when it first came out in the 80s? 2. If HMSC has refined the technology why have they not released how this is different from the technology of 10 years ago. 3. What is HMSC doing to get the AMA on their side? 4. If this does show earnings, what will HMSC do in May when their license runs out? 5. When are the results of the clinicals going to be released? Shouldn't a legitimate product conduct trials before they promote and ship a product? If HMSC were under FDA sanctions, they would have to submit trials before putting said product on the market. Fortunately for HMSC, they are not subject to FDA approval. Perhaps that little feature played a role in the birth of HMSC. I don't know, but these questions just raise more questions in my mind. I do congratulate you on your luck so far, but I don't see it breaking out of its pattern. I thought if it was going to go it would have done so the week of the 5th. Frankly I was surprised when it didn't and now it is sinking in a record breaking market. Is that due to shorts. If, as you say, no shares are available, then it is not the shorts driving it down. We'll see. Steve

<< I assume that you have spoken to at least some OBGYN's, primary care docs, institutional investors with positions in HMSC, investment bankers and company executives, >> I wish it was that complicated Max. Just been listening to the questions raised by Geigartt et al in other forums. I have chatted with the PSSI salesman who frequents the same golf course I do , does that count ? Unlike Joe , I'm not wishing for anyone to get crushed. Seems like FCC made a timely decision and that's a good thing. I covered that last of my short today. Don't see much happening here for awhile. If HMSC rises above 10 , I'll short....if it dips below 6 I'll buy it. Rob
