One last thing to add:

This report gives a decent introduction to early estimating practices and how they develop.

If nat gas remains at these prices, I’m certain there will be a lot of commercial vehicles switching from diesel. Especially ones operating daily routes where the fueling infrastructure can be installed at “home base”.

This may well put a sizable dent in oil usage.

In Georgia, we apparently only have red clay and kudzu.

In the Georgia's northwest corner, the cambrian strata of the conasauga formation is getting some early interest. Geologically, this is the oldest known gas shale play in the world. In 2005, Dominion started in this on the Alabama side.

I think you also still have a few peaches left where the kudzu has taken over, yet...
