Maybe you'll be right, and maybe you'll be wrong. Maybe, maybe, maybe. If you are unsure then don't buy it. Your insecurity should in no way discourage people that want to roll the dice from doing so, should it. Now, if you are trying to convince people not to buy this, why would you want to do that? You have already posted that the wells are there, the gas is there, and the question for you it seems, is whether they will be successful on the Miocene.. But........Isn't that what O&G is all about? Taking the chance. If it was guarenteed, then everyone in the world would have an oil well in their backyard, wouldn't they. Listen, buy it or don't buy it, if you are right, then you will have made a good choice. If you are wrong then you will have made a bad one. Don't forget.... There are the stripper wells also, in this equation.

Yes, lots of maybes........On that I agree....I would never recommend this game to those who want guarantees....That's what banks are for.....Reminds me though of a cartoon in a newspaper I saw many years ago......Picture a bum on a park bench, next to him is a squirrel.....As the squirrel says to the bum...."you look down on your luck, you should be like me, and put something away for those hard times".....At that the bum said, "I did, I did"....Behind him was a Bank with a Closed sign in the window....It was of course the Depression.......And so my friend in the final analysis......It's just Death and Taxes that we can really count on as NOT being "maybes"...

You are sounding really short. I waited a week for you to 'go a couple rounds' as you asked. I responded, waited for you and nothing came back. Did the cat get your tongue or did MK tell you to stick a sock in it? Just wondering! I am not going to sit up and wait for your response, Mr. Ditchwater.

And what is a "sure thing" to you...? Maybe USXX - with all of its Reg S shares (not for me thanks!) - which you sold just before its spike. Hmm, bad move there Ditch. Or how about CADE? You sold out of that one too, huh? Which you staunchly defended because earnings were going to move it...too much insider selling there for my taste. I don't portend to be "authoritative" as you do, but I think I won't pay attention to your opinions or interpretations, thanks just the same. Now, if you are not of the opinion that NTAH is a good investment, why don't you just sell (if you haven't already) and move on? Why are you hanging around here? Oh, maybe you'd like to try to drive the price down? Have you shorted this through Canada? Be careful how you answer this - you may be better off not answering at all.
