Hey, is it just me or do I suddenly sight a small glow of light at the end of this dark, long tunnel. The additional analyst coverage is exactly what this stock needs to jumpstart it. Hopefully it's undiscovered days are numbered! It has been a test of patience owning ECGOF the last couple of months. The company puts out more and more good news and the future of the company looks brighter and brighter while the stock price slowly slides into oblivion. Small investors like us have to work hard to discover hidden gems like ECGOF, knowing that their time will come to shine. I'm almost sure I will be getting a margin call on this baby, as I loaded up in the 11-12 range, thinking that it was only headed northward from there. I did find out that one mutual fund that owns ECGOF is a First Union bank fund called the Evergreen Mid-cap fund. I have tried to speak with the fund manager to get his thoughts on ECGOF, as they own 25,000 shares bought around May. Of course I found out the fund manager would not speak to me about their holdings. Looking for better days ahead Mark
