Manlai,I agree to a point.If there is no oil,our shares will be worthless anyway.One way or another,Senegal must be drilled,and I think FAR is preparing itself for the contingancy that we may be funding at least half the drill ourselves if we have to.I clearly remember four years ago at a FAR AGM,guest speaker Igor Effimoff said that come drill time on the Senegal leases,shareholders may have some very big questions to ask themselves.Well,by entering the next phase of the lease,and a well commitment,we must start making preparations.
