Stephen haven't you heard 130 is the new 120?

I'm totally for high oil prices people need to consume less oil.  On a side note, my family owns land with oil on it.

I admit to NOT understanding a lot of what the brokers are saying. Fun and games this is NOT.  We're discussing the size of the property and the depth they think the oil is by how deep they think it goes figuring in the curve of the earth and then some volume of oil we have. We wouldn't have to dig.  They would drill and they might not even drill on our property.  They could drill miles away but what's under our land is still ours.  And from what we've seen of oil futures the booty is getting bigger.  As far as the forumla they are telling us I DON"T KNOW.  Does anybody know a good mineral rights attorney?  What if we don't agree to the numbers they've come up with?  Can we force them not to drill 2 blocks over?  When I think about it, I realize I have no  clue. It's really complicated.  IT'S REALLY NOT FUNNY.  :-\  Of course, there might not be any oil there they say.  "We should take the offer."

Its a exciting new world ahead of us.
Obama will push that gas price to unbelieveable amounts, unemployment will rise, prices on all things will rise, except real estate, which will tank for the next decade.
Then a war with Iran.
Its all so exciting!!!!!!!!!!

CSX has gone from $43 to $68 in the last 6 months.



PS - I think CSX will continue to do well though.
