jackfrost, what's the effect you asked?

i really don't know.

and all we can do now is hope that the mess in dubai will not cascade far and wide across the gulf.

as they say, when the big elephant investors get scared, they do run or should i say stampede in heards!

being at the middle of it(stampede) is a scary situation to be in...

and without investors money, oil and gas deep under will not flow to surface to be converted to $$$$$!
