RE: We needed to partner with a large oil company i agree wuth potofgold, this reminds me a bit of the texalta deal, everbody keeps saying that pfc has to give up so much, but it wont come to that if they find oil they will sell out to statoil for sure, the way the markets are they are lucky to get any kind of deal, what i would be worried about is the former execs selling into any kind of volume and strength in the share price, between the two of them last i looked they had close to 4 million shares, they can nickel and dime us to death of they dont hold on to their shares
