It's ok, Rio. I think we all try to contribuate and get the best out of it. It's still a young play and there are peoble who are negative about Haynesville, but now I would like to post a positive look on shale, from a Nordea bank analyst from norway:

- The major findings in the U.S. have lit up a sparkling hope, "said Nordea oil analyst Thina Saltvedt of" a bet on higher energy prices. "

Yesterday, Bloomberg reported that one of the world's leading private equity funds, KKR, will submit to the shale gas boom. The desire is to build up a separate company from scratch, the business model should be a pure, unconventional energy profile.

According to a spokesman for KKR's investment is a bet on higher energy prices, and further says one analyst told that shale gas is a "game changer" for the entire global energy industry.

- I have great faith that shale gas could be a good and necessary contribution to the total energy mix going forward. (...) The big finds in the U.S. have lit up a sparkling hope of finding shale gas elsewhere in the world and has led to increased investment and interest in both Europe and China, "said Nordea analyst oil Thina Saltvedt to the Financial Times.

The paper recalls that several companies with a Norwegian association has large interests in shale gas. Statoil, Norse Energy and Questerre are all exposed to the North American market, of which the first two against the vast Marcellus field in northeastern United States.

And South Korea was one of the first to sign up for NG import from the new Kittimat LNG plant, now followed by China's agreement with EnCana. I think this is very good for qec also and that this KKR investment could be right and one of the first to see the big picture(maybe then NG could be up there with the others: a new global mark, in line with oil and gold:)
