Just curious if there are any locals, or from the area that are competing.

I was inspired to ask the question after reading about the Brazilian Synchronized Swimming Team, two sisters: Paparazzo - NOTÍCIAS - BIA E BRANCA FERES

Not to veer of topic too much here, but I agree 100%. I am a consultant and work for a major Oil and Gas company in Houston and frequent the Middle East. Everytime I hear anyone say that drilling now won't produce results for 10 years, I want to yell, and explode.

I won't get too roused up by the argument, but let me say, in the simplest terms I can for anyone not in the oil industry to understand:

When someone tells you that drilling now will not affect the price, or produce resuts for 10 years, it is not true.
