Hi Lister - have no doubt about the mate scenario - thought the same myself - they also vote down other posters forum messages - tis the nature of the beast. Interesting Gregdarky has a similar outlook in regards to the HC as to what it should be used for - where others have the attitude that other members should basically provide the research for them. Forum members have no qualm about sharing knowledge when a poster has made the effort (atleast a little so their posts aren't full of generic wisdom that could be construed as having no real reflection or knowledge on the stock or industry in question). It is when the posts begin to become a little personal and one's ignorance in the stock is reflected in the posts. I'm sure we've all, in the past, made investments on a "whim" without doing the required research. However, longer term investors, possibly from being burnt in the past because of their lack of research, would never make that same mistake twice. It is not for me to judge how each individual invests their hard earned - however when you get a newby on a forum that hasn't done much research either into the stock or the industry and then expects the forum to answer questions that have all answers provided in the last half a doz Anns, it sometimes can be frustrating. Some of us posters are reasonably passionate about this stock because we think it has the potential to be a gem - it has been a long road for some punters and now there is light at the end tunnel, we have a newby that proffers his wisdom without any research???? Most posters use HC for discussion after making an effort to research topics either via past posts, the internet, or sourcing out industry knowledge. Let's hope comments from posters like yourself do not fall on deaf ears and future forum posts from longtermers or those new to the stock are reflected in the topics discussed.

As for TSV - fraccing running behind time - we were 8 weeks away 2 weeks ago - we are still this today. The cement squeeze is a simple process - how successful in sealing the zone is always a concern. A 95%+ seal would be ideal - a little water can always be negotiated - let's hope the post fraccing flow tests are issue free and the results are as expected. The intial flow tests, with water, were outstanding especially when the Ann neglected to tell the market of the 32/64 cock utilised during the test. Not sure if this well will ever be a production hole - it will depend on the the squeeze and the future basin structure. The 3d survey, I assume, is to plan future drilling - where and when and how many - all is looking good - we should hopefully be sitting in or near double figures by Christmas. Wishful thinking - yeh you betya!!!!
