>>>But the o will sure put a stop to all of that.<<<

Most of the Bakken formation is privately held land!! Obama will have a tough time stopping drilling and production.

Lots of drilling activity in the Bakken. I read a while back that 300 wells are being drilled.

We got our lease payments but the wildcatters won't drill until oil reaches $60 per barrel because of the cost to drill to the Bakken strata and then horizontal drill to tap the oil.

Of course there is the Black-tailed Prairie Dogs that must be defended. We visited the Teddy Roosevelt National Park in the Badlands of North Dakota. While there we saw the "Largest Prairie Dog Colony in North America" So I'm sure PETA will prevail!!! Phffooey!
