Hello Chris. I see you joined last Thursday and even posted your own new discussion as a test run. Good thinking! You're in NY so joining a county group may not be as helpful to you, as my 'speech' below suggests but give it a consideration. To introduce myself, I'm Anna Mauck in charge of member services, as well as being the publisher's wife. So let me know if I can help you here on the site. Happy shaling and stay in touch. Below is my welcome message. Take care!

Welcome to the GoHaynesvilleShale (GHS) community! You’ve just gained access to the best conversation on the web about shale plays in Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, and Mississippi. To get started, here are a couple things you can do:
Join a County Group. These are the best places to discuss local activity.
We’ve just started a Newbie thread, where newcomers can introduce themselves and talk about their interest in shale.
Let me know if you have any questions/comments or if I can help you find something on the site. Welcome to the GoHaynesvilleShale community. We’re really glad you’re here!
Best,
Anna Mauck, Member Service
