Board: Who is this idiot? Go back to the sandbox, buddy. Now that we've got individuals that know nothing about the sector shorting, I like the these stocks even more. Looks like it may indeed be time to buy! -Lucretius OFFTOPIC: Glen: my wife went to Baylor.

scname...Funny how people tend to slant their views from an individual perspective. I notice that you have shorted ESV..Now, we will see who gets the wake-up call. You are one of the first on this board that actually has affirmed a short position [and this on one of the strongest drillers]..I think that you will need more luck than the others here when the piper comes calling..If anything, the easing of tensions with Iraq will bolster the already growing sentiment that this sector still has the best value/growth fundamentals in the market...Or are you betting your fortunes on Arakis? [now there is a quality play...NOT]

Please - Iraq will definately not be allowed to resume full production sales especially with their recent ploy, and don't forget all of the big money the multi nationals paid for the gulf lease sites.(they are definately going to drill after laying down very sizeable cash outlays) Most have already established increases in their yearly budgets. Long term contracts have been signed. Before you post another dumb statement like the one you did, At least have the facts to support you statements.
