...calls "a paradise"-Restoration Point on Puget Sound's Bainbridge Island. Founded in 1890 as a summer retreat for a wealthy group of Ivy League sailing buffs from the East, the point is now the duchy of their descendants, whose 16 stately homes, gardens, tennis courts and nine-hole golf course nestle among towering cedars and firs. Seattlites have nicknamed this 120-acre enclave the "Country Club...

This is no time to rant and rave. This is no time to talk about "home jobs," or how long it took to fix the hole in the B.U. crease. This is no time to talk about dirty play, cheap shots, or what appeared to be a night-long mugging of George Hughes. And this is certainly no time to be thinking of what would have happened with Brian Petrovek in the nets...

Drilling one costs about $5 million if it is a producer, almost as much if it is a dry hole-and dry holes outnumber the producers 3 or 4 to 1. Louisiana officials argue that the heavy costs will require higher prices for interstate gas, which is now federally price controlled at $1.47 per 1,000 cu. ft., v. an average $1.85 on Louisiana's intrastate free market.

...conference on geopressure at the University of Southwest Louisiana in November, a research team that had converted an abandoned gas well into a geopressured test hole reported recovering 10,300 bbl. a day of superheated gas-saturated brine, which yielded up 1.5 million cu. ft. of gas. The Department of Energy's David Lombard estimates that a geopressured well would have to yield 40,000 bbl. of water a day for five to ten years to turn a profit. Whether the reservoirs can produce at that volume is one of the questions to be answered by drilling a series...
