September 25, 1998: I think the following would make excellent investment candidates:

American Technology Corporation - Developing Elwood Norris's acoustic heterodyning process. Patents and partnerships underway to bring the Hypersonic Sound System (HSS) to the market. This will probably be a paradigm shift for audio reproduction.

Autonomous Technology Corporation - High-End LASIK using SDI tracking technology.

Metamorphix - Capitalizing on the discovery of growth differential factor GDF-8, the myostatin gene. Myostatin inhibits skeletal muscle growth in mammals. They are currently working on a myostatin inhibitor, among other things. This will probably be revolutionary for both medicine and body building.

Microvision - Virtual Retinal Display (VRD). This will probably revolutionize the man and machine interface.

Spatializer - Great small-cap predictable cyclic stock. They make ambience retrieval products for the audio market.
