      I think he was talking about a fungal blight - I use Dipel   
   anti-fungal and keep water from splashing up onto the plant . The fungus   
   comes from the soil so if you keep splashing down it helps a lot. You're   
   right about the eggshells and moving the location every year . When I   
   plant my tomatoes I put 2 tbsp of a mixture of equal parts Epsom salts ,   
   13-13-13 fertilizer and crushed eggshells mixed with some dirt in the   
   bottom of the hole .
