I think most people act in their self-interest.

I do think a key to success in any walk of life is having a short memory and a thick skin - I know it has served me well over the years.

Natural gas is a feedstock in basically every industrial process.

With regard to electric vehicles, I am all for them because most of the incremental electricity needed to run those vehicles will come from gas-fired electric generation. However, I do not believe it is wise for America to substitute dependence on foreign oil for dependence on Chinese batteries.

I think most people act in their self-interest.

Modern life would not be possible if it were not for chemicals, nor would modern natural gas production.

I can assure you that buying leases for x and selling them for 5x or 10x is a lot more profitable than trying to produce gas at $5 or $6 per million cubic feet.
