And tell my children and grandchildren, "Sorry, back in '09, I bet the farm on a penny stock that was going nowhere when I could have been buying solid stocks that actually were going up." I own some of those now and would rather increase my positions in actual winners than bet more on EDIG — forever the stock of tomorrow. Yes, I've been waiting on EDIG for over 10 years, adding shares from time to time, never selling, watching the price drift lower.

When/if I see evidence that EDIG actually has started to move, based on tangible results, I'll increase my stake. Till then I remain cautiously optimistic, standing pat. I may pay a few cents more per share for EDIG that way, but maybe I can make up the difference by owning quality stocks now.
