Most people think all discoveries are really big wells. The fact is, most are non-commercial and take extensive additional development to amount to something. That is what I do and have done since 1966. It is absolutely amazing how much is still really out there. By the way, if you think the feds and greens are the big problem, take a look at what local municipalities have done with drilling and production restrictions. Talk about scale in the system!
