[QUOTE="Davey Crockett, post: 239949, member: 367"] I agree, It would be tough to sit on a board of directors with that kind of money at stake. Our own state has been predicting, speculating and cheer leading so I am not necessarily pointing fingers at any Williston board members. The problem with hiring consulting firms to predict futures is that you are almost certain to get close to the same conservative answer every time no matter what they see or what they know and without any repercussion to them and they get paid up front to do it with no guarantee of accuracy, It's right in the contract. I cringe when I see how much money that gets spent on feasibility studies , It's unreal what they cost. Excitement is an overwhelming emotion to deal with during good times. [/QUOTE]
