I'm a land owner in SW Pa. and as such, said land being under contract with gas well drillers, and receiving mineral rights royalties, I had occasion to phone my gas/oil company (out of Houston, Tx.) today regarding a matter and, at the conclusion of two different phone calls, chatted with the people and remarked if they knew about this situation.

NEITHER KNEW A THING !

I told them what I knew (from a post yesterday) and referred them to FR

I'm expecting some new freepers soon from Texas

Both calls ended in VERY friendly terms and I was asked to call and keep them posted about what I knew

As someone who lives here in San Antonio, I can tell you it is in need of something. It has fallen somewhat to disrepair, and the grounds should be kept up a bit better. I love that it is lit every night - a shrine, as it should be. Having a place to see the artifacts from the Collins collection will be very interesting. So many tourists I take there reply after seeing it “this is it?”. It actually should encompass more room than it does, but city expansion and the Riverwalk dominate the area now.
