That is what we heard too but I was interested after seeing that there was going to be a meeting in McArthur. I thought there was something new going on.

I would like to keep up to date with any information anyone might have. I was also told the best way to deal with drilling companies is to join a co-op of land owners. I don't know if there has been any talk of that, if so it might be worth thinking about.
