You might want to add LGOV to your list. It will be added to the OTCBB according to them tomorrow after a long spell on the pinks.

Applies to -- COX -- ESTG ELAST Technologies Announces Immediate Chiropractic Market Opportunity for Its ELAST Device ELAST Technologies Announces Immediate Chiropractic Market Opportunity for Its ELAST Device 6 LAS VEGAS, Aug 17, 2000 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- ELAST Technologies, Inc., (OTC-BB: ESTG) www.elast.com announced this afternoon that it will be working with the World Chiropractic Alliance to market the ELAST Device(TM) in its current stage of development to chiropractors. The World Chiropractic Alliance ("WCA"), founded in 1989, is a non-profit "watch-dog" and advocacy organization, which represents more than 60,000 chiropractors worldwide (approximately 50,000 in the US). The WCA has determined that, in its current stage of development, the ELAST Device(TM) can provide vital measurements to the chiropractic practitioner and WCA Founder and President Terry A. Rondberg, D.C., has agreed to assist ELAST Technologies in the marketing of the Device to the chiropractic community. 6 The ELAST Device(TM) is a patented, non-invasive diagnostic tool designed to accurately diagnose allergies, as well as food and chemical sensitivities immediately without any of the pain or expense associated with currently employed testing methods. The ELAST Device(TM) is being designed to test for allergies and sensitivities non-invasively through means of simple exposure and is based upon the clinical observation that the normal flow of electricity in the human body is altered when its immune system is exposed to a substance to which it is sensitive or allergic. 6 The non-invasive nature of the ELAST Device(TM) is possible because the device measures the body's electrical response when it is exposed to an allergen. It is this very measurement of the body's electrical responses that is of great use to the chiropractic community. Chiropractors have long sought objective means to measure and thereby validate their treatment protocols. The ELAST Device's ability to measure the body's electrical response is such an objective test. 6 Thomas F. Krucker, ELAST President and CEO, announced this marketing opportunity this afternoon during his address to the members of the Regional Investment Bankers Association (RIBA) during its Chicago Capital Conference at the Ritz Carlton Four Seasons Hotel. Mr. Krucker stated, that even with very conservative financial assumptions, the chiropractic market can provide a strong revenue stream for the Company in the near term. With the assistance of the WCA, ELAST Technologies is confident that the WCA's member chiropractors will be quite eager to use the ELAST Device(TM) in their practices, and by employing a leasing program coupled with a fee per test the cost would be minimal to the chiropractor. ELAST Technologies projects total revenues for the first year, based on 500 units leased, to approximate $4.5 million. 6 ELAST Technologies, Inc., is a research and development enterprise whose primary business is the development of the ELAST Device(TM). The U.S. allergy testing market is estimated to be a $6 billion annual market (and is estimated to be a $12 billion annual market worldwide). 6 This news release contains forward-looking statements.
