Hi Teevee,
It took me a while to dig this up and scan it(See below). Excuse some of the errors...and a...stay away from Zerox scanners. But below you will find a list of Mr McLeods accomplishments. There is no doubt he can find both oil and gas. In part you are correct we do need production. Read a few posts back, it looks like we will see production later this year Jim
