"Ann I wonder what kind of shut-in clause they have in that unit........"

"Almost forgot, if you go to the East resources building they can give you a phone number to see if your in a proposed unit. They dont do it for you but you can call the number they give you (located in pittsburgh) Im sure they would be swamped with…"
