I moved from Boston to WV in '76 and soon discovered there was a whole bunch'a land that had unlimited lifrtime gas rights with the deed.

Seems them dumb hillbillys told them oil people a century ago, they couldn't have no oil less'n they got the gas.

It was smelly, dirty burning and pretty much good for nuthin' (so the companies thought ..)THEN someone discovered how to carburate it ... THEN someone invented the heat pump, and them dumb hillbillys had lifetiome free, heat and refrigeration (ROGERS refrigerator ... heatpump) ... OH yeah ... and along came mantle burning lights ... all the comforts of home ... for nuthin' !

dumb hillbillys

The rest is ... as they say ... history.
