Anybody know what's wrong with PTEN? It's such a dog, I'm thinking of dumping it with a loss. It's definitely the first to go at the next sell signal. Other land drillers are lagging, but at least not falling. (GW also falling a little).

Thean- Not a bad day of upward consolidation considering oil is consolidating below$17! Looks like we'll have to wait to the final hour to see where we go tomorrow.Too bad we had all this Clinton, Sadam, UN oil, etc. during stellar earnings period. <Stictly Papayas> Correct.Papayas are extremely hard to grow from seed.Yet, after birds eat them and defecate the seeds there is generally a very good papaya tree as a result.I have found that birds are the best papaya farmers. Back on topic, I expect the drillers will perform exceptionately this year since the sector has experienced severe "defecatious maximous" this past three months. dave
