Northernguy, I respect you too and I consider you to be a friend. I understand your frustration. In any case, you are doing the right thing: hold on. Don't sell. Just hold on. As you know, penny stock investors expect super returns on their investment over-night. Sometimes that happens. But more often than not, it does not happen. The key fact to note are the fundamentals for ECDC. The company is clearly moving forward. It no longer is a R&D company. It has great products. It is not in danger of being shut-down. No creditor is banging on the door with threats to shut-down the company. Apparently, ECDC can meet its payroll on a regular basis. As of December 2012, ECDC had 17 employees. When the kinks in Vir2o are removed, WetWinds will be dynamite. StudentConnect is on the move. Very few penny stocks have as many things going for it like ECDC. As always the key to big profits is patience. It may take some time, but ECDC will pay off handsomely. Have a great weekend my friend.
