...but once a "cert call" and/or "squeeze" is announced I stop "trusting" everyone and encourage others to do so as well.... ... Please let me know if I'm wrong about the cusip. ============================================================ grw5 George, RE: Your above philosophy on trust: I'm just musing why James would answer you if you don't trust him and why it would hold any credence for you if he did? <GGG> Onward, I trust, George B.

George, I don't know of anyone who is here for a short squeeze. It has always been the fundamentals along with Murphy and his direction which has attracted every buyer that I know of. The calling of the certs that we own seems like a sound business practice to me. If we benefit at all from it.......great. I certainly do not see a down side. Some of these other so called short squeezes that we have seen attempted here on SI have been jokes. One in particular had people buying the stock while having no idea what the company even did. They didn't care as long as they got their squeeze. Well not only did they not get the squeeze but the stock was halted and has remained so for almost a year now. The company had no fundamentals. The company had nothing for that matter. I am here for the fundamentals of DCI. Anything else, such as a short squeeze, is gravy........and I like gravy !! C From Webster's.......... Gravy......... something pleasing or valuable that occurs or is acquired over and above what would ordinarily be expected.

You should not trust anyone's agenda on the internet, not me, not you, not anyone George: I understand your intent and sentiment. I learned a very painful lesson in one of my first internet experiences regarding just that matter. However, I think it's quite a leap to write off the whole concept of trust on the internet because of the potential of exploitation. I use the very same guidelines on the internet that I do in my day-to-day relations with people. That is, trust is built over time through a pattern of congruity between a person's words and actions. It isn't quite as easy to make that determination on the internet, and, for me, that means that the process takes a little longer. But I hope that we never get to a point where we simply and patently write off every individual as suspicious and deceitful, as a potential enemy. That's a pretty grim view of life, and I just don't share it. I think that the key people on this thread have shown consistent integrity and truthfulness over time, at least the year that I have been around. That's not to say that every word or prediction has been the gospel truth; but that information is conveyed in good faith and with reasonable foundation. Again, I understand where you are coming from. And I have no problem with you raising your concerns about this matter. But I would ask you to keep your comments more diplomatic. You may not intend it, but you really do sound like you are making accusations of bad intent among those who have provided the most leadership on this thread. PA

George, I am going to agree with you that it is a mistake to trust anyone that you don't know on the internet, especially in regards to investing. The OTC-BB tends to be a snake pit and I have quite a few "bites" from other stocks I was in where there was dishonest management that in effect stole $$ from their shareholders. DCI is a special case, but for someone new to recognize this, especially after having been bite by other OTC-BB investments takes time to get to know the management of DCI, DCI's history and the group of individuals that spend a lot of time and $$ keeping up with developments and in some cases sharing that info with others. It is because of the irresponsible notes such as the one you posted, that a good many LT DCI shareholders that have much more to offer than someone like myself, either seldom or NEVER post to this thread. Your claim that you were not "accussing anyone specifically" while directing your negative comments towards " level 2 SI posters" , obviously directs your comments at a VERY narrow group of people of which I am obviously a part of, and I resent such comments being directed my way, or towards others in the same group whom I know don't deserve to be viewed with such suspicions as you raised in your post. As to your suggestion that we should NOT call in our certs., as I said you are entitled to your opinion, but recognize that your position is completely at odds with the companies at this time. If you don't believe that management is proceeding in the best interest for you as a shareholder, then you do not need to be in this stock IMO. The cert. call IS working. Our stock has been rising as more and more shares are pulled out of the float and I do not believe it's simply a coincidence. Why would a DCI shareholder NOT want to see their investment increase in value, and how could having a higher stock price NOT be good for DCI? The cert. call needs to continue to get this short off of us, just as the company needs to continue growing revenues and earnings to allow our stock price to rise to where it should be. James
