"Mysscat, you are correct, I am pessimistic on this stock."
"PS-I bought some stock recently, and had little trouble getting filled at the ask-it usually took about one minute."
Why would you buy stock that you are pessimistic on? Are you covering a short position?
Thanks doggone
I apologize for misspelling 'whether'. I am a horrible writer.
Ted F,
I agree with you that this is quite a gamble. I bought my shares not long after the Abbott announcement. That is in fact the way I was introduced to this stock. I have watched the value of my shares drop considerably over the past 3 years. I have sold small portions of my shares when I had some unexpected expenditures. Like you have stated before, I also could have flipped this a number of times and made money but I always had this fear that it would be too late to buy back in if there was an Abbott licensing announcement type pop. If it were not for my faith in the technology I would have bailed long ago.
I also agree with your reasoning pertaining to royalties vs. commitment to science. However, it is probably not uncommon ,correct me if I'm wrong, for corporations to agree to larger royalties as opposed to larger upfronts when the technologies are in the early stages. In other words, he took what he could get.
IMO it is still impressive that Abbot and Inverness have given us anything weather its $50K or $10M. As others have stated before, large corporations don't just go around signing licensing agreements without doing a large amount of DD.
Are you going to try and sale at the bid into the 40s?
I believe his average sales per week have dropped off considerably. He may be trying to hold out for the next pop. I hope he sales all of his shares before then.
I think the reason radiologists are referred to is because they are generally involved in imaging. I don't think there is any correlation to Serum RIA (relative to this article anyway).
"They obviously don't believe that BOCX has the goods to make recaf viable."
You bring to mind something I was wandering about the other day.
From the Tumor Biology abstract
"Conclusions: We developed a non-radioactive RECAF CIA assay that separates multiple types of cancer from normal
sera with a C/N ratio ranging from 1.3 to 1.7. Our future studies will focus on increasing the cancer/normal ratio to create a manufacturable RECAF CIA assay."
The word that really sticks out here is manufacturable. How high do they have to get the C/N ratio? Assuming the C/N range is the predominent variable for manufacturability, how is it that the current PSA test was ever manufacturable? What was the C/N ratio for the PSA test when it was in the stage of development that RECAF Serum CIA is in now?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Reply from Dr. Curley:
Thanks for your note Jason, I have some antibodies also for HCC cells but I'll check out these AFP antibodies. I greatly appreciate the information and interest.

I sent the e-mail Raven. It was short but hopefully sweet.
I finally found the doctors e-mail: scurley@mdanderson.org
His name is Steven A. Curley.
I am typing up a letter to him right now.
Imagine if there were a protein that the Amazing, Cancer Killing, Carbon Nanotubes could be attached to. Now imagine that said protein has a receptor that is found predominantly on cancerous tissue. Oh yeah, silly me, they must have not heard of AFP and its recptor RECAF.
It really ticked me off when(during the 60 Minutes interview) that doctor from MD Anderson said this was potentially the biggest breakthrough in cancer research(or something to that effect). This big breaktrough doesn't do a darn bit of good without knowing the location of the cancer and having a mechanism to deliver it. I kept waiting for them to say that the carbon nanotubes would accumulate in cancerous tissue but they never did. I had read about this same inventor guy months ago and I had the same reaction then.
Board, please forgive my sarcasm and ranting. It just really bugs me to see such hypotheticals getting publicity when we have so much evidence as to the effectiveness of recaf related technologies.
I agree with you mcd2inga; we should send these guys the answer for a delivery mechanism.
I agree. I would really like to know what that guy's angle is. Smallcap is no longer being paid and they are almost done dumping their shares and yet he still has an interest in this stock. Maybe he is honestly intrigued....maybe he is personally buying....who knows
Is that a rhetorical question?
"It's also funny the article did not mention IMA in any way. Hopefully it was the terms to publish the article that didn't allow for it."
Did you look at the report?
Vladimar Pak uses Dr. Moro as a source on the poster.
Dog,
Did you see in the latest filing that they were only allotting $50,000 this year for imaging? That doesn't make alot of sense to me. However, I could invision a world where you treated early stage cancer using recaf monitoring and recaf based chemo delivery without having to know where the cancer is at. As long as you got your recaf level to come back down, i.e. cancer cured, why is it important to know where it was?
Why did we have to get in bed with a hedge fund at this point? We are closer to commercialization than we have ever been. In the past when we had good news the stock price would shoot up, even then we weren't using traditional methods of financing. So, once again, why are we now having to deal with such a manipulative lender?
AMEX? hopefully
Hey mysscat,
I remember the other board that had been started. This one however us under BOCX in the Yahoo finance section.
One thing that sort of bothers me about Yahoo finance is that I can't see a BOCX chart that displays more than 5 days worth of trade data even though we have been off the pinks for a while now.
I just noticed that a bocx message board was opened recently on yahoo.
