CUSIP No. 26873N108
   
 
 
The following constitutes Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned ("Amendment No.2"). This Amendment No. 2 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth.
 
 
Item 3.
Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
 
Item 3 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
 
The aggregate purchase price of the  1,182,000 Shares owned by MMI Investments is $19,578,237; the source of funds is MMI Investments' working capital.

MMI Investments effects purchases of securities primarily through margin accounts maintained for it with prime brokers, which may extend margin credit to it as and when required to open or carry positions in the margin accounts, subject to applicable federal margin regulations, stock exchange rules and the prime brokers’ credit policies.  In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the accounts.
 
 
Item 4.
Purpose of Transaction
 
Item 4 is hereby amended and restated to add the following:
 
On November 2, 2010, MMI Investments delivered a letter to the Issuer questioning whether the Board and management may have failed to actively pursue inquiries from qualified strategic acquirers and financial sponsors made over several years regarding the potential sale of the Issuer or its subsidiaries and reiterating its demand for the formation of a special committee of independent directors to evaluate strategic alternatives.  MMI Investments also states that many of the largest stockholders are frustrated with the stagnation of the Issuer’s stock price and earnings and share the view of MMI Investments that the most likely way for the Issuer to fully realize the intrinsic value of its assets is in a sale of the Issuer, in whole or in parts.  MMI Investments also calls upon the Board to immediately take steps to repeal the Issuer’s outdated and authoritarian “dead hand” poison pill.   A copy of the letter is attached as an exhibit hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.  MMI Investments concurrently delivered to the Issuer a demand pursuant to Section 14-2-1602 of the Georgia Business Corporation Code for a complete list of the Issuer’s stockholders so that it can further discuss the issues raised in the letter with fellow stockholders.

Item 5.
Interest  in Securities of the Issuer
 
Item 5 is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
 
(a)-(b)              The aggregate percentage of Shares reported owned by each Reporting Person is based upon 15,299,423 Shares outstanding as of August 9, 2010, which is the total number of Shares outstanding as reported in the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 11, 2010. 

As of the close of business on November 2, 2010, MMI Investments directly owned 1,182,000 Shares, constituting approximately 7.7% of the Shares outstanding.  MMI Investments has the sole power to direct the vote and disposition of such Shares on the date of this Statement.  MCM does not directly own any Shares.  However, by virtue of being the general partner of MMI Investments, MCM may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the Shares owned by MMI Investments and to have sole power over the voting and disposition of such Shares as a result of its having the sole power to make voting and disposition decisions on behalf of MMI Investments with respect to such Shares.  MCM disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares, except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein. Mr. Lifflander does not directly own any Shares.  However, as a member of a "group" for the purposes of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Mr. Lifflander may be deemed to beneficially own the Shares owned by MMI Investments.  Mr. Lifflander disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares, except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
 
 Except as described above, as of the date hereof, to each Reporting Person's knowledge, none of the persons listed on Schedule I owns any Shares or has any right to acquire, directly or indirectly, any beneficial ownership of Shares.

(c)                      Except for the open market purchases of Shares by MMI Investments set forth in Schedule II attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, there have been no transactions with respect to the Shares since the filing of Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D by MMI Investments, MCM or Mr. Lifflander, or, to each Reporting Person's knowledge, any of the persons listed on Schedule I.

(d)                      No person other than the Reporting Persons is known to have the right to receive, or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, such Shares.
 
 
(e)                      Not applicable.
