Ok we are all getting frustrated with MAE so why not teach your kids some maths:

Multiplication:

If Marion estimates 5 Mill expenditure - it will be closer to 10 Mill.
If Marion estimates results in 6 months you might see them in 12 months.

Division:

If Marion estimates 1Tcf of gas the reserves report will show 500Bcf.
If Marion forecasts flowrates of 20 million cubic feet per day you will get 10 per day.

Addition:

If Marion forecasts a sale next year, add two years.
If Marion needs two capital raisings they will make two more.

Subtraction:

If Marion has 'successfully' treated 7 wells for hydrates, 5 will still have massive hydrate problems.
If Goldman is spruiking $2 / share in the final sale... SELL NOW!!!
