The area is a good area. It's going to boom someday.

Someday we'll look back on this moment and plow into a parked car.

Certainly a mini-boom. We have a lot of area that the deeper targets have never been drilled. We think there's a tremendous potential for natural gas -- even more than oil.

That boom of yesterday is echoed in today's boom. The players on the stage of the bay area have changed from generation to generation, but they're in the same play. They're telling the same stories.

Whenever you put in city water those areas seem to explode.

Not everyone can afford a great home on the water. It's a matter of choice where people want to live.
