So you were our BB Founder !
Can certainly say we have had our ups and downs, good days and bad days, and some fun along the way too. The only thing missing was the money. I'm deep under water, so looks like the BB is stuck with me for a while.
All the Best

True ... We need to see better than $1M unless the stock moves on future potential, hype, excitement or whatever you want to call it. We would need to see something verifiable and concrete first to believe good things are headed our way. IMO
But stay with me here Richie
What kind of sales numbers do you think we need to move the needle?
I guess the share price is so cheap right now, that even small moves can make you money. A million dollars may sound like allot of money, but these days it really isn't. Consider the expense to run and manage the company. That number can get eaten into pretty quickly. My opinion ......... I do think IDTA is gaining momentum this year, the question is how much traction do they need to turn things around. The pounding they get on the BBs dosen't help either, but they have much to do to rebuild confidence. At this point, Money talks and fluffy PRs won't do much.
Just my opinion
Vits
I know thats a loaded question
because stock prices can be irrational. but lets say .002 is a good answer. 8.5 billion shares at .002 is $17 million dollars. Can a company that has $1 million in annual sales (less expenses) ever be worth $17M, or is $1M in sales just a drop in the ocean and really can't move the PPS much? Kinda like throwing a few billion dollars at a $15 TRILLION US deficit. Even Billions of dollars are spit when it comes to paying off the debt. Several here are getting excited about the prospect of seeing $1M + in sales for 2012, but is there really anything to get excited about?
Vits
Lets say they sell over
$1,000,000 in 2012. Anybody care to speculate how that may affect the share price?
If Ron Paul were elected
You wouldn't need test kits ... you would need an order form !
: < )
In a Italian household
The parents rush to the Pasta draw and take out the Wooden Spoon !
Maybe Identa can provide a free wooden spoon with each test kit!
That will take a bite out of the drug problem ... In a loving way of course.
You are absolutely right fadi
Thanks for the correction.
Close enough for me.

Fuzzy Math Check
So if we are now told that the first 2 months of sales revenue in 2012 ($180,750) equals 90% of all the the revenue received in 2011, than sales for 2011 were $162,675.
$180,750 x .90 = $162,675
This differs from what we ( or I) previously estimated 2011 sales to be at $206,000.(IMO) We were previously told that 2011 sales exceeded 2010 sales by 66%, which I believe we were told or guesstimated to be about $125,000 in sales for 2010.
$125,000 x 1.66 = $207,500
So which is correct ?
If we were given actual sales results by year instead of this scavenger hunt stuff, we would know. (IMO)
On the bright side, if sales continue to keep pace at the present rate, IDTA should make over $1 million this year.
$180,750 / 2 months x 12 months = $1,084,500
Things are looking better this year, provided the momentum keeps up, and we are receiving good information. IMO
Vits
Thats because they haven't lost Thousands of dollars yet!
One thing new investors have going for them, at least the price is cheap. I think my cost average is .0038
If the real news was good enough to make everyone happy and encourage new investors to be here, we would know about it.
I believe that simple statement above sums up everything that is discussed on this BB. I know this for sure, because lots of people say I am Simple. or something like that
Vits
RichieBoy, I believe this bothers YS allot
Who would want to log into a BB and see all this discontent about what you do for a living. Its just that everyone has a limit, and most here have reached it. Nothing we can do about it, but only hope IDTA can get their act together, and get the PPS moving North. Then no one will have any reason to complain.
No one would like to see this more than me (except maybe Em !)
Just My Opinion
Vits
Because they Can !
Go Identa !!!! Please make Em, fadi & Wolf right.
A nice run with some real good news that is verifiable will change the whole atmosphere around here. I am reallly looking forward to that. Lets see !
Not Necessary
That plane will be purring like a kitten in just a few hundred miles. You can trust Caveat Emptor Airlines !
Where a Skull and Crossbones is NEVER considered a big deal.
Go Identa !!!! I'm speechless !
Caveat Emptor Airlines
Buy now and Save! Flights starting at $0.0011.
Just sit back feeling safe and secure that you have made a good choice with Caveat Emptor ! Sorry ... No meals served, since no one has yet to arrive at their destination anyway...Financial that is ! :< )

Go Identa !!! Don't worry, just needs a tune up and oil change!!! So does Identa !!! IMO
"I have been ringing the alarm bells for about FIVE YEARS"
Yes ... but you work on a Ship and get paid to do that !
Even bet you get to blow the whistle once in a while !
:< )
Go Identa !!! Do you hear the bells?
Yes ... I wish they would sell to Disney
Then we would see Micky and Mini promoting drug test kits in Retail stores at top dollar prices! And who wouldn't trust Micky and Mini ?????
How could we lose? IMO
Go Identa !!!! Think out of the Box, or crawl back in it !!!!
Hey Rocky, I forgot to say thank you
That OTC markets link was very interesting and helpful. Filled in allot of the blank spots for me.
For those who still want to load up, think about this:
Would you drink anything from a bottle that had a Skull and Crossbones on it?
Would you buy a stock that was branded with a Skull and Crossbones on it?
Go Identa !!! I think you need to repair the foundation before you can start to rebuild some goodwill around here. Do something right for your stockholders, and just watch how we can turn things around for you !
Ugh ! Not a pretty picture
Is it. Ever hear the expression "Everything looks worse in black and white" Well this looks like a train wreck. With 8 years of happy talk behind us and nothing of substance to show shareholders, I would think CE is the beginning of the end.IMO
When a shady exchange like the Pink market, (which in itself gets little or no respect) thinks you suck, you must really suck. IMO
Go Identa: Go clean up you image before touting how much money you are about to make.
Seems to me Richie
if they could have pulled out of this nose dive, they would have done so by now. IDTA is dieing a slow death, and we are watching it happen before our eyes.IMO For those who are still cheer leading for this company, you should read the last few posts a few times. It may save you some money.
This is sad.
Vits
Yes - But really
who put the Brand on them?
If its IHUB, I would say thats not good.
If its the SEC ... I would say thats really not good !
Stupid question of the day
Was Caveat Emptor status bestowed on IDTA by:
1) The SEC
2) IHUB
3) All of the above
4) The Mafia
I think Captain Jack Sparrow summed this up nicely
Me, I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for. Because you can never predict when they're going to do something incredibly... stupid.
Really can't really say which one applies to IDTA. IMO

Interesting
So if person #1 is selling his car and asking for $1,000 and someone bought it for $1K ........ thats a BUY.
If person #2 has someone walk up to him and offer $750 for the same type of car and the owner takes the cash, (selling at market price I guess) thats a SELL.
Would the volume for the day be recorded as $1,750 ?
Buys $1,000
Sells $750
Its really very simple Wolf
What you think of as negative people, are folks that feel violated because they truly believed what they were told and invested money here ... and lost most of it. Granted, had we been astute investors, we would have flipped on the highs and left town, but the fact that we stayed was because many believed in this companys potential and social responsibility. No one wants to be a bag holder. If you can read between the lines, you will realize we are trying to get Identa management to open their eyes, and help the people who helped them become a company in the first place. If things change, we all win. If they don't change, you yourself could find yourself being a bag holder someday, and I don't wish that on anyone.
All the Best

No / Yes, and eventually an inevitable RS
Its just so incredibly hard to understand why anyone still trusts this company. Who in their right mind would buy a ticket to ride on Caveat Emptor Airlines. I don't see much difference when it comes to buying this stock. IMO
Vits
OK... I think
Let me have a few beers and sleep on this.
Either way .... we still get screwed .... Right?
Sooooooo
Sell volume: 3,620,000
Buy volume: 4,999
3.6M shares were offered for sale
and 4.9K were purchased ?
Wouldn't volume be based on the number of shares that actually traded hands?
Sorry to be so thick on this.
How can that happen?
Shouldn't Sell = Buy
Yes ... Its good to recycle
Unless its old news being recycled.
BTW... Did you hear we are Penetrating the Virgin Retail markets !!! Biggest news since sliced bread ! One things for certain ... somebody is going to get .... Oh well ... never mind

A small retraction Emily
"I hope this gives you a better understanding about where we have been, and where we are going".
I wrote that at 4:00am in the morning and was not thinking clearly. (But then again I never do think clearly). That Dam asteroid that passed by so close to the planet last night woke me up!!!. The Aliens came after me last night as well, but I wacked one over the head with a lawn chair and told them to buy Ibenta stock. They ran like hell !!!!
I know you know what you are doing, so you don't need any advice from me. Sorry if it came across that way.
You go Girl ! Counting on you to buy the next round of drinks with that overflowing money bag.
All the Best
Vits
Truth is Em
The Aliens go yard saleing on the weekends, and pick through peoples garbage on Sunday evenings to obtain spare parts for their space ships, which is how the Lawn Chairs probably got onto those Space Ships. This statement is no more or less true than most of the things we are told about Identas progress IMO. I hope this gives you a better understanding about where we have been, and where we are going. If you follow the time warp continuum back to 8 years ago, you will find that the PPS was much higher, so in year 2012 many now have 20-30% of their original investment. The rest was sucked into a black whole within a matter of weeks. It is universally accepted by most within the cosmos, that this is not considered progress.
Go Identa: Heading for .02 .... And Beyond !!!!!!!!!!! "Buzz Lightyear"
Nothing like a big bag of cash to break your fall.
Right with ya Emily. Nothing would make me happier. Just hope the big surprise isn't Retail sales. I don't know how they have the stomach to release this one. Its like reading the Headlines from 2005. So tell me something ... do the lawn chairs fall over at Warp 5? They always fell over in the parking lots, but thats because the Scouts were always drunk!
Vits
LOL ... May the Lawn Chairs be with you!
Your money might not be anymore, but at least you still have a place to sit !
All the best Em!
Vits
As I predicted Em
The Identian mind meld is powerful and generally takes a few weeks to wear off. I can now see that you are returning to reality, but not quite 100% yet. I assure you that you will be fine "in a few weeks". The Aliens are known for abducting unsuspecting Pink Exchange shareholders. Caveat Emptor is generally an Aliens biggest challenge to overcome, but the force is strong and can turn even the staunchest bag holder. I'm glad your back because I missed the old Em.
But Seriously, just kidding and I do wish you good luck at this run. The only advise I can give you is please stay away from those crop circles. If you think you may have been a victim of an Identian alien abduction, one of the tell tale signs is to look for a blister wrap package tightly wound on your middle finger. It is not only a metaphor, It is there as a reminder of the many tales told in years gone by, when Identa products were supposed to be on their way to all those retail chain stores. But alas, we were all screwed! IMO
Go Identa: Go forth and prosper ... the PPS I mean
Vits
I'll never tell
What I can tell you is that there were no delivery trucks at Rite Aid, CVS, and Walgreen's.
Go Identa !!!! Go Retail Wooooo Hoooo
Maybe working at a McDonalds
But not here. Sorry Wolf ... I know you are new here, but this stuff about getting into retail markets is outrageous. This was breaking news 5 years ago! maybe longer ! I know, because I spent a good part of my adult life being childish, making up stupid stories on this BB about people who wait in Lawn Chairs looking for Kit deliveries to retail stores. I guess this new PR means I need to resurrect the old crew back, cause kits are on the way ! Only hope Newt Gingerich wants his old job back as a Lawn Chair Scout !
Sorry ..... But this is even too much for me !
Vits
Glad you think its funny Rich
just hope the guy whispering in her ear has a fast Corvette and a 50 mile head start !!!!
Go Identa !!!! Now just starting to penetrate the virgin Retail markets. What a concept! Why didn't anyone think of this before!
Yes.. everyone knows the more appropriate response would be
yada yada yada
