duncanmcl,

I think your reading too much into that article. No question, it is very bullish, but if there was any info on a relationship split, it would have to come via a PR first. To give out info on a JV change to a magazine before investors would be a no, no. I look at the situation this way. The two closest holes are absolute company makers. MEO holds off logging their well a couple weeks and in the interim announces they closed a deal on 190 acers surrounding it. If they had logged it then tried to make the buy, their stratagy would be obvious. By not logging it until after the deal, they had clear sailing. Don't think for a second they don't have a very good idea what's in that hole. That's the picture from where I sit. I finally have the size position I wanted, so now I can give my opinion.
