"I think their float is only a few million, they have something like 1 employee and their device can detect anything anywhere anytime."
That BS damn sure isn't going to get us ex-Loch Harris shareholders to bite, unless one wants to play the pump-n-dump.
We've all learned our lesson.
With Loch Harris, detecting trace explosive using XRF, at a 2 meter stand-off distance, in real time was much more believable.
NOW, the latest update disclosed to Sandia by CDEx is the tech can detect trace explosives at under an inch with a very small scan footprint. No integration time is mentioned.
Apples and oranges.
I wonder how long Poteet and MP knew this information? How Long was MP fooled and why didn't Poteet update him the second Poteet came on board with CDEX. Why did MP continue to hype the suite of products as still being viable for over two years before shelving them? Why did it finally take the Army/Navy evaluation (and after the fact too!) for him to finally disclose this information?
This story about MP being fooled by those tricky Boyz just makes no sense to me. Foe example, simply look at the timeline of MP hyping the suite of products for over two years into his tenure as CEO.
One can hardly beleive that the newly appointed inventor of the technology, Dr.Wade Poteet, was also fooled by the Boyz. That idea is absurd. So at the very latest MP should have been completely updated to the true ability of the tech the second Poteet came on board with CDEx.
This begs the question, even if MP was fooled, why did he continue to hype the tech for over two years after he clearly should have been brought up to speed?
Nope, until I hear something that's remotely believable the "MP was fooled" story makes absolutely no sense to me and is just part of a cover-up story IMO.
It just goes to show, even with all the sharp lawyers, technical experts and business men, it's still tough to get all those loose ends tied together into one knot! LOL
RA,
"And lets not forget Rio. He was gung-ho and ready to go after'em too. At least that's what he said but after finding out he was feeding all our plans to the opposing attorney, I knew I had been had. Oh yeah, the opposing attorney told me Rio had his hand out wanting something for his troubles too. AND THAT IS DOCUMENTED!!!!"
In the past few years, I've seen several penny stock scams use the tactic of getting their own insiders or (wannabe insiders) to act as plaintiffs to effectively attempt to sue themselves.
Sounds like Milchip and Rio were playing you to assess the threat, then feed the information to MP and the Boyz.
I believe that a similar scenario happen with Andy. At the time insiders Mari and Stewart were strategizing a suit to get Loch and the crew out of hot water, Andy "jumped the gun" and took it upon himself to hire an attorney to start an action. Unfortunately he put his trust into Mari/Stewart/Capnmike and look what happen. Some manipulative backdoor action was used to squeeze Andy out of play. They then brought their own lawyers in to take firm control of the action. An action which they had already been strategizing months prior to Andy's involvement, an action which proved to benefit the loch Harris insiders much more than the honest shareholders with their shares deliberately held hostage.
Mission accomplished.
Still, Andy's involement served a good purpose. While it amouted to nothing more than a wrinkle in the insider's plan, Andy's testimony helped expose the manipulation which had ocurred.
Funny how Ontheedge/Kidinsight will write pages and pages of posts trying to explain his way out of the information that has come to the surface which many believe to be the truth:
Rigging a shareholder lawsuit.
Answering email addressed to MP. (Most Longs now believe that KidEdge is MP's personal mouthpiece.)
Trying to discredit lmorovan by fabricating a FAKE email and getting caught.
Attempting to answer (by lying) for Poteet and his documented association with Blair, Cauthen and Sandia laboratory way back in 1995. (How on earth he can be an instant expert on the history of Poteet I haven't a clue.)
And yesterday- attempting to divert a TCL uprising by falsely accusing Milchip of being related to lmorovan! LOL
Most will agree with you- he's no where near as clever/smart as he thinks he is.
That's what I find so funny, he thinks he's so clever, but in reality he's as transparent as glass.
Now that's entertainment!!!! LOL
MP did you read this post about your number one shill and mouth piece?
"Got any more of them cheap $2.50 PP share to sell people? Cut the crap and get real. You are the one who is bs'ing people! IMHO"
The CDEx Longs know.
Oh oh!!!
OH NO KIDINSIGHT, you've got to be kiddin'! LOL
Shut up shares??????
The plaintiffs got shut up shares?
Man O man can you put your foot in your mouth!!
Are you "kin" to Ontheedge? LOL!!!!
Hey RA, hope ya made some money.
Wow!! Another BIG WHOPPER by li'l KidEdgy on the TCL!! LOL
"I know for a fact that you are kin to lmorovan."
Apparently you're having some trouble containing Milchip again eh? But really Edgy, I can hardly believe that you know that as a fact. Perhaps you're just foolishly trying to divert attention away from the situation at hand.
Very sloppy tactics if you ask me. You shouldn't claim something's a fact when it can be easily shown not to be true. That would make it a lie.
It makes the believers wonder what else you've been lying about.
You best get over to the TCL Board kidinsight and start earning your money. As MP's message board front man you're not doing a very good job.
Kapeesh?
P.S. When O when did the savvy lawyer and nuclear engineer, MP finally figure out he had been fooled by those clever Boyz??
After Poteet sent the Boyz a letter expresssing his disapproval of the PR's? Is that what you now claim?
LMAO!!! THAT'S A GOOD ONE!!!!!! You can really make up some funny stories. Unfortunately, that would be very, very bad news for both Poteet and MP if true. You sure you wanna stick with that story? Make sure you put the right date on it! LOL!!!
I see Monsonman continues with his ethnic prejudice on RB. Someone should TOS him. The world doesn't need racial hate like that man has burning inside of him. Disgusting.
LMAO!!!!!
"You boys stick to the truth, and quit harassing good people...
And who might the "good people" be Kidinsight?
Look into the mirror and smile at yourself and say:
"Yes I can sell PP shares!!! I'm good people."
LOL!!
Demmo,
Nice DD about MP's dealings with the church Deacon.
Reminds me of the Dicut scamco and the deal MP tried to cut with them.
Nice of you to help out "Topgun" so he doesn't get booted off this board like he did on RB.
He tries so hard to cover up the scam, he really does.
Stupid. EOM
As with Crow, I don't bet with someone I don't trust.
You're for entertainment value only Edgy.
It's hilarious pushing your buttons and watching you spin your tales!!
"Absence of malice"
You must be a Paul Neuman and/or Sally Fields fan!
LOL!!!!
oops, well I guess that post was worth reading twice anyway(s).
INET6,
{i}" would it have been that he saw potential after talking with the scientists ,and knew the only way to get it away from the Boyz would be to go along with their BS until he had control. He had it on CDEx's website while he was still not completely in control. My stupid guess is as good as yours!!"
First of all INET, I hardly think that you're naive, stubborn yes, naive, no.
Your guess isn't stupid, it just doesn't make sense- to me at least.
INET, the most recent update we have on the explosive detection is that the stand-off distance is UNDER AN INCH and it has a very small footprint. WHEN HAS MP EVER REPORTED THAT TO SHAREHOLDERS? Whe did he learn of this limitation?
AGAIN INET, ACCORDING TO YOUR THEORY, WHEN DID MP LEARN HE HAD BEEN FOOLED? If you claim it was after talking with Poteet then why did he continue to deceive shareholders with all the BS for years?
And don't tell me it was to wrestle control away from the Boyz because that has more holes in it than swiss cheese.
{i}"Don't talk about naivety,do you think anyone believes you ran into such a stupid reporter, that she/he would give you all that information over a phone."
That's 100% the truth and you can verifiy it by calling the reporter yourself- it's as simple as that.

And you INET6...
... still believe MP was fooled by the Boyz!!!
Unreal!!!!!
Before he was even hired by the Boyz he took the EM-1 to Kinnsmen Island and tested it first hand. Don't you think a savvy SEC attorney and nuclear engineer would have figured it out by then if he had been fooled?
Instead he wrote statements praising the performance of the EM-1!!
SO INET6, WHEN DO YOU THINK MP FINALLY FIGURED OUT HE HAD BEEN FOOLED???
Was it after the subsequent tests in the lab which he reported with flying colors on the CDEx website?
When O when did the nuclear engineer finally figure it out??? LMAO!!!
AND WHY DIDN'T POTEET TELL MP IF HE REALLY WAS TRICKED BY THOSE BAD, GREEDY BOYZ????
Surely a lawyer such as MP had a heart-to-heart talk with Poteet before making the decision to take the job offer from the Boyz???
Was he still fooled after consulting with Poteet??
And you think your theory is just as good as anyone else's- it doesn't hold water, zero!!
MP was fooled!!! LOL!!!
You just can't be that naive!!! You just can't!!
That's probably why Crow calls you a stubborn ole geezer! LOL
Gee wiz, this KidEdge seems to be calling everyone on this board a liar except himeself!!! Now what are the odds of that being true??? LMAO!!!
When did I obtain proof beyond doubt that Kidinsight/ontheedge lied in his posts and therefore has most liking been lying all along with his absurd nonsense?
When he claimed that Poteet threatened to file a lawsuit against the Arizona Daily Star Newspaper for the mere mention of his name in a 1995 article about Wade Poteet, Henry Blair, Harold Cauthen and their work with Sandia Laboratory involving remote sensing
KidEdgy's story just didn't make sense so I took the time to investigate by calling the newspaper and talking with the reporter that wrote the article and their legal department.
KidEdge claimed the newspaper responded with an "absence of malice" defense against Poteet's threat of a lawsuit.
The newspaper's legal department told me that an "absence of malice" defense would only be used after the parties were "deep into litigation" which means that Poteet would have actually had to file suit.
The reporter that wrote the article told me that he would have definitely been involved if such a suit actually ocurred. He told me he never heard anything about a lawsuit at any time concerning the article.
In addition, the ADS legal department would most certainly have had the case in their legal achives. No such case file exists.
One of many kidedge lies.
Kidedgy has zero credibility with me and has proved himself a liar over and over again IMO.
He best spend his time practicing his smile in the mirror and selling more PP shares to the "honest investors" he seems to know so much about IMO.
He posting campaign ain't working.
PP "broker" Edge,
"Lots of honest investors made some good money diddy bop, you and lmorovan sure seem to forget that, now ain't that surprise!
Even more good honest investors made more money owning CDEX and selling it!"
Sounds like you're trying to hawk some more CDEx PP shares with that statement! What do you do, target the honest investors, are they an easy mark? LMAO!!!
"Can you give me a hint as to what you like to read?"
I'll give you a wittle hint Edgy, it ain't BS and it ain't lies to cover up a scam to protect crooks that ripped off honest investors.
Kapeeshy?
DocDwight is trying to blow smoke up everyone's u-know-what.
Unbelieveable!!! LMAO!!!!!
Bleed those shares into the float! Come on PP investors gobble 'em up!
After all the tech is revolutionary. The Army knows about it, the Navy knows about it, Congress knows about it...
Why are there no contacts or partnerships after 4 years???????
WAKE UP!!!
Unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You showed in my mailbox with your last post (twice)! LOL
Crow (test), Do not read this post. Let's see if it ends up in your mailbox....
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah......
End test.
INET6,
I just checked out my mailbox and there's three messages under the heading "UNREAD PUBLIC REPLY".
Could be that if someone replies to your post and you don't read it the post ends up there.
Nice feature actually.
INET6,
Just for kicks I tried to send you a "private reply".
I clicked on the "private reply" button after reading your post thinking I could send a message to your mailbox and the following was displayed:
The feature you tried to use is only available with a Premium Subscription!
That's making me think that you can't send private messages to mailboxes without a paid subscription- maybe the moderator, but not free subscribers like me.
Old Crow,
I pretty much told Edgy the same thing- who cares!!
He's beating a dead horse.
A scamster is a scamster whether they're dressed up or not.
Oh really Edge? What makes you think that Poteet/Cauthen were "on the ball" with the tech back in 1992? Do you have any hard evidence to back it up?
According to one source, Poteet was working with IR back then, not UV or x-rays.
On the other hand, we know from the ADS article that Poteet, Cauthen and Blair were working closely with Sandia National Laboratory at the time that Sandia was conducting their UVF experiments.
Quite (quit, quiet) a cowinky dink eh?
It also happen to be at about the same time that Sandia was developing what Loch Harris and CDEx call VAMMP?
What aggravating cowinky dinks eh? LOL!!!
I wonder if any of the scientist listed in the UVF Lidar article remember OSEM gang. Let's find out.
Here's Poteet, Blair and Cauthen in 1995:
Not even the sky is the limit for OSEM
Richard Ducote. Arizona Daily Star. Tucson, Ariz.: Apr 23, 1995.
Copyright The Arizona Daily Star Apr 23, 1995
MADE IN SOUTHERN ARIZONA
Things are looking up at OSEM Inc. - and not just because the company makes telescopes.
When it was founded last summer, OSEM had three employees. It now has 25 and is looking to expand by 10 more.
The company name stands for Optical Systems Engineering and Manufacturing, and that is a fairly good shorthand profile of what OSEM does.
It occupies three separate locations in an industrial area near Interstate 10 and West Prince Road and serves customers worldwide.
Henry Blair, the company's chief executive, says he "conservatively" expects to book sales this year of about $13 million and hit actual revenues of $8.5 million. Gross profit, before taxes and reinvestment in the company, should be about $1.6 million for the privately held company, he says.
In its six months in business last year, total sales were about $1 million and gross profit was $314,000, he added.
But OSEM didn't just appear in the business galaxy out of nowhere. It is the successor to Henry M. Blair Consulting, founded in July 1992.
Blair, who holds a Ph.D. in engineering, thinks his company has no rival in the private sector anywhere in the world for expertise in optical instrument design and manufacturing.
In fact, Blair says, his company really has only two rivals, and they are both more like "one man" operations that subcontract nearly all the component manufacturing for systems.
He says OSEM's ability to design and manufacture sophisticated instruments in quantity and nearly all in-house will put it in a very competitive position.
The key, he says, is the company's ability to make "low-cost, high-performance mirrors" because of Tucson's wealth of resources in optics and astronomy.
"We like Tucson," he says, because astronomy likes Tucson's weather and mountains, which Blair calls the source of the UA's reputation in the field.
While astronomy has been here for decades, the opportunity for a company like OSEM is a recent development, according to Blair.
The decline of government-supported "big science," as demonstrated by cancellation of the Super Collider project, has opened the way for greater use of more but smaller instruments - just the field OSEM intends to plow.
"Small," of course, is relative. OSEM can build scopes with mirrors up to 2.5 meters in diameter, the size of the Mount Wilson scope in California that was the biggest in the world at one time.
Today's biggest optical scope has a main mirror 10 meters in diameter.
Blair's goal, however, is to compete in the field for smaller instruments by putting together a vertically integrated company to produce optical systems at about 40 percent below the cost of traditional custom design and build methods.
Blair essentially wants to adapt mass production and automation to the optical instrument field.
In February, the company was chosen to build two telescopes for the University of Massachusetts - the so-called 2MASS Project, which stands for Two Micron All Sky Survey.
The telescope system will map the entire sky from telescopes in both the Northern and Southern hemispheres.
OSEM will design and install the first 1.3-meter telescope at Mount Hopkins, 40 miles south of Tucson, by January.
A twin unit will be built at Chile's Cerro Tololo about a year later, Blair said. The contract for just the Mount Hopkins scope is about $650,000, he added.
The 2MASS contract calls for OSEM to provide the telescope, large optics, a digital focusing system, drives, system computers, a finder telescope, mirror handling equipment and other systems.
Much of the OSEM staff was recruited from University of Arizona astronomy and mirror lab programs. Blair is more direct:"Raiding is what we do," he shrugs.
Company facilities will soon house five mirror-casting furnaces, a key ingredient in the OSEM strategy of building its own components to cut costs.
A 1-meter instrument will sell for a bargain $280,000, Blair says, about $200,000 below the cost of a custom scope the same size. A 2-meter OSEM scope will sell for about $590,900, he says, about half the cost of competitive hardware.
Blair said that as "big science" slows down, demand will increase for instruments like those offered by OSEM.
In astronomy, he says, discoveries are made with large instruments, but the diligent science spurred by the discovery is done on small scopes.
Blair was project manager for the Smithsonian Institution/UA Multiple Mirror Telescope on Mount Hopkins, the two existing Mount Graham scopes, and was engineer or manager on numerous other optical projects.
The company's director of optical projects, Lawrence K. Randall, has worked for the European Space Agency, the National Science Foundation, Kitt Peak National Observatory and numerous other groups.
OSEM project scientist Wade M. Poteet, an astronomer, is a veteran of the UA Spacelab-2 IR Telescope Project and has worked on Department of Energy, Sandia Labs[\u] and NASA projects as well.
The company's mirror lab director, Walter Stoss, worked on various Steward Observatory mirror lab jobs.
Peter Wangsness, head of casting process development for OSEM, also was involved with the UA mirror lab and developed a process for producing lightweight honeycomb glass mirrors.
Roberta McMillan, OSEM systems staff engineer, worked on lunar instruments carried to the moon by NASA astronauts, designed mirror-polishing components at the UA, and was involved in numerous other optical projects.Software development specialist Fatima Lopez is responsible for programming the company's mirror furnace temperature control system and other systems. Systems engineer Harold K. Cauthen is a specialist in laser applications and has worked for NASA and Sandia Labs projects.
Fabrication manager Kent Johnson has extensive UA Mirror Lab experience.
Engineer Robert L. Meeks was start-up engineer for the Vatican Advanced Technology Telescope on Mount Graham.
Michael Nakamura, with 13 years of experience in optics, is in charge of large optical finishing.
Vince Luongo, with 30 years of experience at IBM in various production and reliability posts, is OSEM production manager.
In addition to astronomy, the company also sees an opportunity in optical monitoring of airborne contaminants, technology that can have applications in such fields as semiconductor manufacturing, and environmental or nuclear non-proliferation compliance.
Last year, OSEM was awarded a $400,000 federal contract for Brookhaven National Laboratory to design and build a mobile laser-equipped system to measure air pollution.
OSEM and Sandia National Laboratories have a cooperative research and development agreement to focus on remote sensing systems.
In recent weeks, Blair said, representatives of the Smithsonian have expressed interest in buying two 2-meter scopes from OSEM, and NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has contacted the company about buying two 1.5-meter scopes for testing of laser communications equipment for JPL's proposed lunar and Martian observatories.
While Blair is busy putting the company together and dealing with customer inquiries, one of the things of which he is most proud is the company's involvement with a project to put a telescope atop a new building at Tucson High Magnet School.
Blair said he just happened to notice that a telescope dome was built on the new facility near the UA campus, but never saw a scope being placed in the structure. He was told by Tucson Unified School District officials that no funds were available for an instrument.
OSEM has committed about $250,000 to a two-year project that enlists students to help design and build a half-meter scope at the school's Technology and Science Building.
The project will apparently make Tucson Magnet High School the first public school in the nation to have a research telescope.

Multispectral Ultraviolet Fluorescence Lidar System Identifies
Chemical Mixtures in Field Tests
by P. J. Hargis, Jr., G. C. Tisone, T. D. Raymond, J. G. Taylor, J. S. Wagner, I. S. Shokair,
R. D. Mead, J. D. Daniels, T. J. Sobering, M. S. Johnson, M. W. Trahan,
B. F. Clark, C. Wakefiled-Reyes, and F. R. Franklin
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Motivation
Highly sensitive ultraviolet (UV) measurements are generally thought to be of limited use in lidar systems designed to detect chemical species in the atmosphere. Recent work at Sandia National Laboratories has changed this perception and led to the development of a new multispectral UV fluorescence lidar system designed for remote chemical analysis. Briefly, a broadly tunable UV laser is used to transmit multiple laser wavelengths, some of which are selectively absorbed and subsequently excite fluorescence in specific chemical species. The resulting fluorescence spectra at each excitation wavelength are compared to a database of fluorescence spectra from individual species to determine species concentrations. The com-parison is carried out using a unique multivariate analysis algorithm developed at Sandia to determine species concentrations from multi-spectral UV fluorescence measurements.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Accomplishment
Sandia’s multispectral UV fluorescence lidar system was tested in July 1995 at the Nevada Test Site. Measurements were made on vapor plumes consisting of mixtures of benzene, m-xylene, p-xylene, and toluene ranging in concentration from 1 to 500 ppm. All measurements were made at a standoff distance of 0.5 km. Atmospheric attenuation coefficients derived from elastic backscatter measurements were used in the multivariate analysis algorithm to correct measured fluorescence spectra for distortions due to transmission of the fluorescence radiation through the atmosphere. The analysis algorithm was then used to determine species concentrations and time-dependent concentration profiles. Almost 95% accuracy was achieved in identifying species in chemical plumes containing up to four species. Fluorescence detection limits for individual species ranged from about 5 to 10 ppm-m for all measured species. Highlights of the field test results include the first multivariate analysis of multispectral absorption and fluorescence data and the capability of UV fluorescence lidar measurements to map species concentrations in chemical plumes.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Significance
Data obtained at the July 1995 field test demonstrates the potential of multispectral UV fluorescence measurements to detect nuclear, chemical, and biological proliferation activities. Other areas of national importance that benefit from the new technology are counterterrorism, drug interdiction, environmental monitoring, and global climate change.

Edge,
You and I already debated the issues with Analytical Spectral Devices, Inc., their patents and their exclusive partnership with McKesson back in Jan-Feb, '05 on the Loch Long board.
There's really not much more to say except it's just amazing how you insiders try to downplay the significance and how it might effect the value of Valimed.
Pookie takes the gold medal by telling Chipper that he's posting the information on the wrong board.
I'll quite (quit, quiet) sure that you already informed HQ about ASD the first time it was posted. What happen, what did poteet tell you to post? No defense?
On a positive note (if CDEx is not infringing on ASD's patent), the ASD validation system is a high-end product designed for high volume, central fill location pharmacies. It is well out of the price range of smaller (volume wise) pharmacies which CDEx is targeting with Valimed.
Unfortunately, as I said in the past, I do believe CDEx will have some trouble with one or two of their pending patents.
In that regard please note one of CDEx's patent applications which targets the nursing sector of health care. I do believe that CDEx is well aware of which remaining niche applications may still be available without patent infringement.
CDEx is a follower, not a leader IMO. The leaders take the cake and leave behind the crumbs.
As I said a year ago, Loch/CDEx as NEVER came up with anything original.
KidEdge where are you for a reponse to Xeno's posts. Are you getting instructions from HQ! LMAO!!
"Additionally, optical imaging technology can also be integrated into a chemical analysis and verification system constructed in accordance with the present invention, such as systems that are adapted to perform optical character recognition (OCR), color analysis, or other physical (rather than chemical) property analysis and identification."
As was told that these technques are currently being utilized to compare the color, size and general surface morphology of the med.
Lots more info than just the spectral fingerprint.
Xeno, how ya been?
Brilliant Milchip,
I posted about Analytical Spectral Devices, Inc. a year ago!
I visited their booth and talked with their engineers.
I've read their patent which covers UV Fluorecence as well as IR and VIS.
I called the company and talked with their VP of Technology who is also a founding partner.
They have patents and are aware of CDEx and the Valimed. When I spoke with them they were in the process of reviewing one particular patent to legally determine it's scope. Their technology not only captures a spectral fingerprint, it also captures the surface morphology of the med, the size and color.
They have worked with the doctors at Maryland School that were doing the research on UVF for PAT. They discussed the limitations of the technology with me.
And Yes it has sophisticated software that compares the captured spectral fingerprint to a ID library.
The system is being used throughout the US at CENTRAL FILL LOCATIONS.
It is being exclusively distributed By McKesson Corp.
AND POOKIE WANTS EVERYONE TO BURY THEIR HEADS IN THE SAND!!!
Pookie, why don't you want milchip to post the information on the TCL board? Isn't it relevant? Is the TCL only for positive news like the scapes that you did up?
Gotcha demmo, now who is this "JOG" you mentioned?
I'm disappointed with you Paige, I thought you'd do a google and find it for sure.
Big "new event" on 12/04/05.
Ontheedge, I don't have to be drunk to misspell, just in a hurry.
So Edge, do you encourage a suit against the Boyz? After all, didn't they rip you off as well?
Wouldn't it be gratifying to watch them testify under oath in a court of law?
Do you think there'd be some three letter agents in attendance?
Scared,
Yes, I'm aware of the other overheads involved with employees. I just thought some of the extreme cases of WC was worth noting.
I don't know how bad WC is in Texas, but here in California it's been out of control. WC reform was one of our new Governor Arnold's (not going to attempt to spell his last name) campaign platforms. He's made some good improvements in the fraud involved with doctors and insurance companies, but there's still much more to be done IMO.
Inet6, STOP using my lines. Come up with your own damit! LOL
And another thing, you entirely missed my point.
Demmo,
"being have"
Not quite (quit, quiet) sure what you mean?
Paige,
What's happening in Vegas on December 04 besides the ASHP meeting/exhibit?
I hear there's something new and exciting coming to town.
