This will be the next cottage industry, there are untold thousands of wells in our country that were capped &/or abandoned in the last century when gasoline was free, and many have filled back up &/or re-pressurized in the meantime.
Now that it costs an arm & a leg to fill your gas tank, and drilling is more high tech., the home enthusiast has a new profitable hobby, yeah!

There were a few articles warning that this would happen. I understand that they made a decent contribution to our oil supply as there were so many.
