Alex,

It amazes me that you would take the word of posters on the internet rather than the word of someone you know at the Japanese Institute of TB,take my word for it there is a good size market up for grabs in Japan but it is,for the reasons you have stated probably not as good as the posters here think it is,many years ago they used to talk about 50million in Japan alone,even CST are now saying something like 7to12 million,the truth is even they don't know,no one really does

Also it may be that approval takes another year or longer (the Japanese can string things out for a lifetime)and there may only be potential for a few million tests.It could even turn out that the British have contacts there and the tube approval gets put back for the UK test.These things happen,especially in Japan.Until you see it written in black and white anything can happen

As I've said before CST is a good,even great company it is just not as good as most here think it is,no company could be.It's only a little while ago they where talking about $12m to $15m profit(posters not the company),half of that will be closer to the mark,which is a spectacular result but it won't be good enough for some which means that a great result could present a sell-off and a buying opportunity,such is the madness surrounding this company

So Alex beware,there is much that is good about this stock but there is much work still to do

Lastly make sure that you do not confuse what the company say with what gets said here,the company say little but internet posters say a lot.
