Is the gas industry now dead in Ohio, WV & PA?

Who or what  killed it?   Can it or will it ever be revived?  And if it is revived, what level will we see it...10%, 20%, 30% or maybe 75% of what we have seen in the recent past?   Will the market for our NG allow the gas companies enough incentive to invest in expensive pipelines?   If not, growth of the gas industry in our region  will be limited by current pipeline takeaway capacity, and that doesn`t good for us.  Any thoughts??
