Another bitch about gas prices

[OnlineStageGear]

It would cost the oil company’s a lot of money to build the oil producing/refinery plants even though the technology for “environmentally friendly” production is there, but it is better for them to import oil because the return on the investment would take years.

That's the only part I disagree with. When it only costs around $4 to get a barrel of oil out of the ground and it is selling in the ballpark of $135 a barrel on the open market, they would stick an oilwell on your forehead if they could.

Do a Google search on the Haynesville Shale here in Louisiana. It's estimated that it may be the largest natural gas field in history. Land is being leased in my neck of the woods for astronomical amounts. DeSoto Parish is gonna be slap dab full of Jed Clampetts by this time next year.

Just went out and checked my mailbox and here's what I found.
