This news story is getting a fair bit of play
http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/reports-say-marcellus-shale-natural-gas-has-national-impact-and-larger-reserves-than-predicted/2012/10/20/6ddd95d2-1aee-11e2-ad4a-e5a958b60a1e_story.htmlMr Hughes, Mr. Nelder -- I assume an article like this falls under the heading of "read em and weep".?
In other words, years and years of Nelder (and now perhaps Hughes) debunking. The wonderful thing about the internet is how you can go back and find these guys with their past reportings, and see how incredibly far off base they are.
The funny thing is - Mr. Nelder is making fun of one of his readers for saying that "natural gas production is setting records"....
So here is a simple yes or no question for Mr. Nelder and Mr. Hughes.
Will the USA set an all time record for natural gas production for the calender year 2012?
Yes or no question ... do you have the guts to answer it?
The answer is almost surely yes. The numbers have looked great all year. 2011 was a record setting year, and 2012 will likely clock in at what, 4 to 5 percent higher? So another record.
So if 2012 will set a record for all time production, how is it that the person who write "the USA is setting a record for production" is wrong and you two are right?
