DeSoto Dude: I can read the press release. What I meant by "physical location" of the well is a description on the ground that will locate the well. For example: One mile W of Hwy ?? and the Intersection of Hwy ??? and Hwy ???

Thanks

YVW!

It will be 0.09 miles off the road to the left if you are traveling south.

Taylor: I cannot get Google Earth to work on my computer. Also, I am not from that area. Can you please give me some road names or something so I can just locate the well on a Google Map? I looked for Four Corners Store in Yellow Pages online and they have no listing. I need an intersecting road to Hwy 157 so I can get my bearings. Thanks in advance for your help.

Taylor: Thanks for the additional information. I successfully downloaded Google Earth but when I tried to navigate to the coordinates you gave me the screen just freezes. I think my computer may not have enough horsepower to run the program properly. Thanks again. I will look on just "plain" Google Map.

using well head cost of 7$ and 25% royalty, each acre in this 640 acre section would produce 16,467.77/year or 44.8$/day.

At $13.35 per mcf and at 16.8 MMCF per day that comes to about $224,280 per day. If #'s stay the same, their cut ,at 1/5% to landowner, leaves them with $65,489,760 for one year.Minus of course production costs.And some claim it takes two years to pay it off! They may need to start showing some fiscal responsibility, especially if I am a new stock holder!
