I have reviewed this board for some time now for free - too cheap to buy a subscription until I finally broke down today. Appreciate all the work most people do here. I have benefited tremendously and wish to say thanks. What a team of information gatherers! Personally I just bought my initial shares a few days. I have taken some money out and turned around and bought more. The potential for this stock is really alarming. I own 700,000 shares at this time and intend to increase my position, either thru buy/sell, or direct purchase. This little drop today was interesting but was expected because of the rapid run up and 60M+ shares traded, & profit taking and I haven't blinked. If you look at the product, the service they're providing, the big picture, and the people involved then everyone should realize the real magnitude and potential. If you add to it "el nino" and the weather that is expected in Mali (which produce mosquitoes) it magnifies the potential. I am in now way hoping for this to happen, just going to take full advantage of the stock. Hope we all make a lot here. Thanks again to all of you who have done so much research, reporting, and even the neysayers who motivate us all to do more research.

Brain Plastic, needless to say that I believe you are absolutely correct in saying <<what would make you think today this stock is no long worth .07.>> I don't know the owners of this company and do not know of their integrity - where greed on their part could affect us long term it's been known to happen especially with penny stocks from time to time. Close scrutiny, good investigative reporting,and research may help us all to keep that from happening. I don't have that negative gut feeling on this stock due simply to the need of the product. Where need instead of greed is the factor in any stock, you can usually place a relatively safe bet, especially in the human welfare arena.

(Now that I broke down and paid to be able to respond here - I may do that from time to time) I'm long from here on (with a little profit taking on the way up)

You're right, of course. I would not be in this position if I had not violated all the rules I laid down for myself when I first started investing. And all the ones I added to them as I went along. Desperation does weird things to people.

Having said that, though, I do disagree with you on some points of penny stock trading. I really don't think you can approach it from the same standpoint you would for the 5 buck and up crowd. Due Diligence doesn't mean the same thing with penny stocks. For one thing, you seldom can find out a whole lot about them, and even when you can it is often a pack of lies. Due diligence in penny stocks is basically finding out if it's about to go bankrupt, do a reverse split, under SEC investigation, or is being flipped or mauled by day traders. And even then, you never really know. I still haven't figured out how UNFC/REMH went from a 10 cent stock to a 2 dollar stock by doing a 10 to 1 reverse split. That's a 100% gain.

You have to go into it with the idea that you're going to ride the wave up and bail out before it crests. Unfortunately I missed the crucial point on ADGI. That may not be such a bad thing, though. It really does appear to be more than just your typical penny stock shell. I know I came down hard on it this morning, but I was just HAVING FEELINGS, man. This is the 90's, and I can have feelings.

The Resident Neuro-surgeon proclaimed with wild hand movements and much passing of wind: "There is good money to be made in penny stocks, but it requires true diligence and patients."

Hmmmmm, a little slip of the tongue there Doctor???? Patients???? Where would the good doctor be without *PATIENTS!!!*

Dr. J. is the master booger-eater in a surgery comprised of lifting people's wallets and removing the contents through numerous (and always) debt incurring strategic manuevers.

BRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH (hoisting my fat ass onto a nice Hickory stump.....ooops, that's the Hairy-man's head, soooo soorrrryy)

Ya see, it all begun in the beginning....The Hairy-Man begat The Gerrard Enterprise, the Gerrard Enterprise begat the Shock Absorber scam, the money flowed over the ADGI Dam (never to be consummated) millions of shares and bucks in consultant's fees. The clueless penny stock mariners floated the boat over the treasure hunter's dream castle in Atlantis....the savvvy investor is reading twixt the limmerick line, pulling the plug and doing it quick, cause the bottom line is the last deposit in the overseas nightdrop box of the CIA's company store...want more????

Issue stock, the clock stopped the mouse ran up to DC, the Hairy-man cried foul and flew to Geneva for a convention on conventional wisdom, whilst Dr. J stirred the pot with vaccine ampules filled with Crack....it's the stock attack, a last ditch anti-logic war waged on the unwitting by the unyielding to produce the unthinkable. Saddam Hussein doing the Anthrax fix on the mundane in the main vein, Doctor J. flipped the wick and threw 50 million dollars into an overseas account. Contracts were made and the Coolest Doctor this side of Havana is lying in the shade under a Palm tree.

Ha!

The dooer, lifeless marks line up for the thrust, pants dropped and waiting for the cue. Meanwhile Hickory is evicting our fine doctor for non-payment of rent, wifie split with the garbage collector, the DNA Anal-izer lies unused in a Public Storage unit in Little Rock. The Willie G. commemencement speech at Uncle Gordon's Penthouse and retreat on a backlot south of Barracks B is sealed hermetically to prevent the oozing scum of outdated drugs which usher faint odors reminiscent of absinthe and paragoric. Scully pulls up in a rented Ford LTD, looking for all the world like Madonna as she thrusts her knee into the cancer man's crotch. Doctor J. steps forward and in a last strained effort hands her a key....

To be continued.

Ha!
