With all of the hype over ISON and its 'bomb detection' demonstration on Thursday, do you think it is time to get back into IMX ? It only has 1/3 the float of ISON and has already shipped production units to the US Army, Us Navy, TSA and the Greek Olympics?

Zeev, ISON nearly doubled up 2.78 points to 6+. I read their press release on their "handheld prototype bomb detector." It supposedly uses beams of neutrons in a type of Neutron Activation Analysis."

I wasn't aware that one could produce neutrons with a handheld device. Only aware of Neutron spallation sources which requires a linear accelerator or a reactor splitting U235. Maybe I'm just not up on the latest in handheld cyclotrons or something. When you have a chance, could you see if their explanation is SEC bait gobblygook or is this within the laws of ordinary physics. No hurry, I'm out rest of day. TIA.
