this from the perth newspaper in 2008 - makes me feel warm and fuzzy ... i thot this might happen as MC is more a broker/financier than a true oil and gas guy (thats no criticsm!!!! hes done a great job getting us to this point)

"ONE of the true pioneers of oil and gas exploration in Australia, Ms Howell was the highest ranking woman in the petroleum industry in her position as chief executive of Apache Energy Australia.

She would understand the value of the assets and how to negotiate with the big boys
