I 1st heard about EDIG in Mar-2000 from a sales rep that I did business with. She got a tip from a broker, and bought many tens of thousands of shares at 6 cents, and when it peaked at 24.50, she sold it all. She paid cash for a 4 bedroom house just blocks from where EDIG's office is today (Westwood in Rancho Bernardo), cash for both a Jag and PT Cruiser, added a big pool and spa...for cash, quit her job, started her own rep agency and made a very good living thereafter and with plenty of money left over in the bank. She also had many marriage proposals...duh!!

Carmela (yes, and Italian gal) suggested I look into EDIG and got me interested in the Money Central message board at some point, but that was after I bought my 1st EDIG shares on 3/23/00 for 11.58. I kept buying the stock all the way down, plus reading the boards, going to SHM's and listening to many webcasts, and my last buy was 3-4-03 at 21 cents. On that date, I had 50K shares with an avg of 1.12.

I continued to read and participate on Money Central as DISCHINO mind you, go to SMH's and dropped in to many webcasts, and followed this companies PR's, NASDAG listing prediction which I think was 2003, communicated many times with RP via e-mail and phone, then realized this ship was taking on H20, and I may have thrown over $50K of my hard earned money down with the sinking ship, but something did not make me sell a darn share. Something always gave me faith to hang on, and it was not posters in MC or Yahoo! (damiano_dischino over there to this day).

I heard about Agora thru a Google search for EDIG news by accident, joined this fine group in 2008 and began getting interested once more in this company. I had actually followed along via e-mail alerts, but discontinued the SHM attendance that were not consistent anyway, the webcasts had stopped, and I no longer kept in touch with RP. I casually followed along for 5 years after my last buy in Mar-03.

When the IP efforts started to surface, the DM announcement and the filing of the "Mag 7" in Mar-08, my interest peaked once again. The boards were very busy, positive in nature from most posters, and the Agora board I found to be an interested cast of characters, a wealth of real information as I followed along, participated and watched 6 settlements come our way, to finally post a profit for the 1st time since I started to buy this little puppy in Mar-2000.

Because of what I was seeing develop, and the potential to run up again, and I do not mean from positive believers who post, although it had a small influence collectively, I decided to start buying again, and I mean heavily, on 2/27/09 at 19 cents thru my last buy 7/23/09 at 11 cents, and I may not be done accumulating. I am not willing to share how much I now own or what my break even is, or what my exit points will be when the time comes, which I believe will happen...SOON...LOL!!

I understand the world of a realist, as I am one myself but not in the legal field, but the supply of electrical material for construction and industrial use, which I have spent 40 years doing such, and now a part-time consultant...a job I just took on after 2 years of retirement.

IMO, this board needs people who believe a repeat is possible as well as the doubters point of view and why. If there was no debate, no exchange from all angles, this place would be a waste of time. Something attracts many here daily does it not?

I enjoy comments from those who feel we will see the riches come our way, as much as I appreciate words of caution, and those who question and are frustrated with management for all the reasons they state. Collectively, this place, because of it's diversity, provides an avenue to assist in making a decision. I say assist, because IMO it should not be the sole reason to buy or sell.

Obviously, from day one when I got here, I joined the believers/I want to feel good camp and have never left it, although frustrated at times like many. The "opposites", realists, questioners of management play an important role here and keep the playing field level IMO. We are who were are, we say what we feel, and it's all good.

Surprisingly to me, this ship has not sunk, it is no longer taking on H20, and is on it's way to port. I will be there when my ship arrives...will you?

GLTA, DISCHINO.
