My response to the basher, says this is a different way.
Given the timing, pre and post RS, CB has been riding this horse based on a preconceived plan and schedule, all IMO. We are all too think that nothing is right from the bashers, but the reality is, we know very little, except for what you pointed out, pictures, etc....
The one thing we can say for sure, without debate, is that the reality we live in, oil and gas, is the right place to be, considering the price of oil and gas today. 2X from last year alone.
This is due to many factors, the effects of the US dollar on commodities prices, the supply and demand strain from the Far East, peak oil concerns, no US energy policy, nor hope for one soon with this political mess, to name but a few issues.
