This is a repost from the ECO board on AOL. I would encourage all to follow the simple cut and paste outlined below and get hoovers to clean up their database.

Soon the fog will be lifted. Very poetic, CapitalGNS. And as both you and DrVegan point out, the main factors in lifting that fog accrue from a well managed, strong, and fast growing company.
I wonder if we, in our own small way, can help. For instance, I still have not been able to get Hoover's, Inc to correct their error. I guess one person is easy to ignore.
I wonder what would happen if several people following this board sent a request for correction? It would only take a few mouse clicks and I would appreciate the help. Here is an easy way to do it:
1. Copy the information below. (Edit it if you want.)
<<<
This is a request for the correction of inaccurate information in your capsule on American ECOLOGY Corporation.
I believe that the corpoarate officers (e.g., McGinnis) and offices (Houston) that you list in that capsule belong to a different company named American ECO Corporation. It is confusing with two such similarly named companies.
As an investor, I also would appreciate a capsule on American ECO Corporation. You can get details about the company at www.americaneco.com or by calling:
W. Todd Hickman
Director of Investor Relations
American Eco Corporation
Houston, Texas
1-888-774-3246
Here is American Eco Corporation's standard news release blurb defining the company:
American Eco is a leading North American provider of single source construction, management, maintenance and environmental remediation services in the refining, petrochemical, utility and forest products industries.
Thanks for your time.

2. Point your browser to www.hoovers.com
3. Click on the little box in the upper right that says "TALK TO US".
4. Scroll down about one-third of the way and click on "Editorial Department". (An e-mail form will pop up.)
5. Type in a subject like "American Eco/American Ecology confusion".
6. Paste the information you copied in step one into the body of the e-mail.
7. Click on the send button.
8. Wait one or two days for your very own automatic e-mail response from Hoover's.
9. Be on the lookout for fog such as inaccurate or out of date information.
Thanks for your help. Let's see what kind of damage many tiny flapping wings can do to that fog. Oh, and lest I forget, the standard thanks to Babe and others on this board for being our lighthouses.
