Tomas: I stopped trying to make sense of the O & G and drilling stocks about 2 weeks ago, absolutely nothing makes sense except fear and panic. The most logical explanations I've heard are slipping oil prices, conservative O & G exploration budgets from some of the majors, Asian flu, and year end profit taking by our friendly institutional buyers. However, explain how a stock can trade over 1M shares one day, and then slow to a trickle a few days later (RSO). I realize that there were many lucky buyers at CDN 1.25 that wanted to lock in profits, but this is still ridiculous. I hope the Swedish bourse is a true representation of values and we are just an obnoxious anomaly.

Is the drilling crew in Libya Swedish or Canadian?
Poor joke, I think the market is saying RSO hasn't struck oil in
the lower levels. I hope they're wrong.
I haven't received the proxy as well, most unusal, my broker has
been excellent in the past.
