I think this went pretty well. Regardless as to whether you agreed with Dr. Fleming on every answer, many kudos to him for showing up to chat with us. Most politicians would run to the hills instead of taking this off the script risk. Below is the script, an edited version, of the live chat. I will post the chat we had with Gerard Bowen later today.

T Boone Pickens Plan – Will it work?
Last night I saw a commercial for the Pickens Plan (www.pickensplan.com). If you have not checked his plan out, make sure you do. The last time we saw a Texan putting on a personal campaign of such magnitude was Ross Perot. Pickens plans on spending $58 million promoting the use of wind power and increased use of natural gas. Perot spent around $64 million dollars on his 1992 campaign.…

If you needed a clue why Chesapeake Energy (NYSE: CHK) CEO Aubrey McClendon is buying his company's stock hand over fist, BP (NYSE: BP) may have provided one.

Range Resources . Target $84. Stifel Nicolaus upgrades RRC to Buy from Hold and sets target price at $84 saying they believe Marcellus concerns have played out. The firm says Range was a darling of the E&P space in 2007 and into 1Q08, however as infrastructure delays and water permitting/cost questions emerged in the Marcellus Shale, investors began to sell the Marcellus names and Range was a go to call.
The firm says as the Haynesville Shale picked up…

The theme of this week is Snake-Oil Salesman and making enemies.
There seems to be a consensus among those with whom I speak to that there are a lot of people asking you to pay them millions of dollars to not do much. I was at one of these meeting in Sabine parish near Toledo Bend last Wednesday. The gentleman got up and essentially said, “My uncle is an Oil and Gas Attorney and he’s got a mean lease” now give me millions. The guy was unprepared as was evident when the older, but…

It seems that not a day goes by without some news out of the smoking-hot Haynesville shale. The news flow is downright torrid for such an early-stage natural gas play. Of course, few investors had heard of companies like Goodrich Petroleum (NYSE: GDP) or GMX Resources (Nasdaq: GMXR) before Chesapeake Energy (NYSE: CHK) blew the story…
