RSVN - I learned the hard way that even if you're polite (as you were) rational (as you were) that none of that is important to PDG, he wants to bait you into a "discussion" with him assuming an arrogance that is really unwarranted and if you continue the discussion he will claim that "he's bugged" you and say "mission accomplished".
Good luck to you, many others have made an attempt to be rational with PD but it's a one way street and the "ignore member" button serves a useful purpose!
I'mm with you on Hettinger. I don't believe he would put up a wall to accessing credit markets in the construction phase. Well activity is up and new fields are being discovered or put back into play because of fracking. I live in TX and my family has been in the oil business here since the 50's and this is the biggest boom since the 70's.
The move to shut down the gas fields was a smart one and none of the revenue already claimed by them is "gone" just the loses going forward are removed until we see a recovery in the price.
Meanwhile the support industry for drilling is a full-on boom and it's the right and strategic place to be - IMO.
