Hi Fuzzy, All dividend increases graciously received! I listened to both XOM and CVX webcasts this morning. CVX had a lot of difficulties this quarter. It strikes me that XOM has greater engineering expertise and scientific capabilities with in the chemical and Carbon sequester business. CVX has a headwind with projects all over the world with great challenges. I think buying Hess was a very good move for them. They've effectively moved their future activities closer to home, and piggybacked on XOM's modular design skills being effectively implemented off of Guyana. I love CVX's balance sheet and stronger dividend increase policy. I think XOM is the more conservative company with greater future capabilities which should be proven by faster lomg term growth. Both give me a pleasant confidence about future dividend income. Bob
