Stanley Binder, the company's chairman and chief executive

gratifying as the Company's current Model 400 IONSCAN(R) gains
greater acceptance in the market place. As previously announced,
the increasing acceptance of IONSCAN(R) for trace explosives
detection in civil aviation security and the recently announced
contract for European rail service security evidence the acceptance
of our products to a broader market. It is now our belief
IONSCAN(R) is the world's leading instrument for both drug
interdiction and anti-terrorist explosives detection."
