Over at NDIC's "well search":

  • #37229 is the company's first permit in North Dakota

Six wells in this immediate area have been drilled over the years; many different formations; all dry. Hope springs eternal.

Wow! Gilda explained! Changes everything. Amazing. Eddie Muller figured it out. Actually I doubt he was the first. Rita Kaszás had it figured out in 1964. I watched Gilda last night before I knew Eddie Muller's explanation. Watching it again this morning in a completely different light. Great movie; great ending.

Casablanca: 1942.

Gilda: 1946

Glenn Ford, in Gilda, channeling Humphrey Bogart in Casablanca. 

Rita Hayworth's character: hell hath no fury like a spurned woman.
