They never caught on, but a geologist from Read & Stephens called me up nearly doubled up in laughter.

Indian names are popular there, then and now, but Ghandi #1, that, my man is a classic.

I was there doing landwork for Depco from 79-82 thru the heart of the Abo formation play, which at the time was huge, with the 800 lb Tiger, Yates Pet., controlling most of it. I remember Read & Stevens well, McClellan Oil and a few others. They are not as active now, as back then. Yates, however, is as active as ever.

Anybody else see the problem with EVERYBODY wanting to go to natural gas at the same time?

The bigger problem is the enviros, who would kill every coal and nuke plant you want built. FACE IT. Then help deal with it.

"FACE IT. Then help deal with it."

I did already, but all the brave volunteers ran away an hid when the pushing and shoving got too nerve wracking for 'em! Taking a principled stand on a consistent basis was just too embarrassing for the Country Club, checked pants Repellicans who really never understood why they were supposed to be for limiting the power of government anyway... oh well...

I swear, they'll never understand what a power struggle the people that love the traditional American culture are in! It's hideous!!!

They say in one breath they can't understand why they can't control their own property or business, then in the next breath, they say they really appreciate what government central planning does for them and that they cannot trust their local government to handle something that important to them.

They go through life with no personal mission statement, or written personal strategy and then freak-out at the inadequacy of the government program that is all that is left to take care of their neglect and dependence on government.

Independence Day seems to me to be a good time for everyone to reconsider what it will mean to our futures as individuals if we just rely on happenstance and the political whims of shallow politicians to secure our futures.

I thought this thread was about natural gas, LOL!

I still haven't read the long treatise, but it is clear from the graphs that there is a problem coming at us fast!

It is about nat-gas. I was just responding to Bob's throwing down the gauntlet that we should do something, even if it was wrong, about the undue influence of GANG-GREEN!!!

Actually, I was just crudely passing gas! Phhhht!!! (grin)

Wow, couldn't have summarized the reason I posted this vital info better than those paragraphs. Great job and thank you.

Keep it handy in case it gets extra hot in CA this summer. Use it then to counter Grayout's attack dogs when he starts to claim price manipulation like 2001.

Hay! Eldoradude!!! Peanuts are legumes! Are you putin the blame on Jimma Caarter? Maybe it's alla that NV weed-free hay I see bein trucked over here to CA?

No, seriously, I'm personally concerned what might happen to the price of my Propane supply as Nat-Gas is part of it's makeup. Kinda makes me pucker a little harder!!!

Hay! BOBTHENAILER, thanks for the kind words and say "Hay" to my good friend Eldoradude who just got brave enough to post one of his first replies on FR!!! He's a good dude with lots on his mind. (and I don't mean real estate lots, either)

Did you all see that England is going to start taxing cattle ranchers for the flatulence added to the Global Warming problem?

I am NOT kidding, I saw it on FOX. This is getting surreal.

Welcome aboard eldoradodude, you'll have fun here and say hello to two of my recent converts, big buck and The Hose. It's taking them a while to figure out how to post, they're sssssllllloooow.
