I think we’d all cash the check and leave those wanting more to ponder what might have been if different decisions had been made over the years

I agree. We have paid a very heavy price as shareholders for one man's naivety and foolish pride. None more so than him as a major shareholder. It is a tragedy of epic proportion.

There's still the other possibility no one wants to address.

It's quite possible there is no hospital market for ASure.

It's time consuming and cumbersome and probably not suited for regular use in a busy hospital.

The individual I had contact with last year who was the CEO of our largest local hospital said as much.

This guy is the one who you have to convince and he was not exactly impressed. He thought it has a place as a service he could call on in an outbreak situation, nothing more.

When I posted this last year most here dismissed this guy as uninformed. Guess what... he was very well informed and is a very big player in this market who has since moved on to become CEO of a very large hospital group.

Out of all the stuff that gets posted here, this is the only information ever offered from someone at a high level in the hospital market.

It could explain why there have been no sales in Canada after all this time. Their distributor is a major player in Canada and perfectly capable to make sales if they had something attractive to sell.

Until there is compelling evidence to the contrary I for one will not dismiss this possibility.

We may have missed a very important point in WIV's reply to NSD.

To quote: "New BOD members weren’t happy with the EPA results being generated and brought on board folks they’ve previously and successfully used with the EPA. That topic was referenced in Ed’s recent letter and I think is the reason for the renewed optimism on that front."

Assuming that WIV has a solid source for his information, this means that one of the new BOD members, Esposito or Caponi, connected Medizone with the DC lawyers who are dealing with the EPA. The timing of the DC connection would seem to make Esposito the more likely party, since Caponi came on board after the attorneys were involved.

This answers some of the questions about Esposito's interest and contribution to the Company. EPA is crucial, ho knows this, and he is using his connections (as least according to WIV) to make it happen.

I think we’d all cash the check

That would all depend on the size of the check. MZEI shareholders are a delusional bunch--many were certain that a mystical entity was going to fund the company at 5 dollars per share over a decade ago. More recently, all the comments regarding buyout prices have been north of one dollar.

At a price offered by a suitor.

Assuming they get EPA approval and limited sales---as your scenario suggests, how much of a bump in share price from the 8 cents we are trading can we expect. 10 to 30 cents maybe ?

Unless a bidding war erupts between competing companies, I'm thinking any buyout price may be much less than the shareholder base is anticipating.

Will the delusional shareholder base finally get a dose of reality and take what they can get ? Past history seems to indicate otherwise.


Ed may not want to sell for any variety of reasons, I’m reminded of a Western saying, ‘money talks and _____ walks’.


What's a 70 year old man going to do with money. From talking to various people who have dealt with Ed over the years, its all about the glory. He'll sell out if he gets an interview on CNBC or CNN, possibly an article in a major newspaper, but unless he gets the recognition he feels he deserves, he will be a thorn in the side.
