The Mississippi Limestone Oil Field we are sitting on appears to be putting out sufficient oil to make the greedy oil companies very happy. Channel 3 news last night said they are now paying as much as $3000.00 an acre for oil leases in south central Kansas. So if you are happy with $25 an acre or $200 an acre go for it. I chose not to. My property and piece of mind is worth a lot more then that.

The possibility/risk's of quakes and contamination is worth a lot more then a few hundred dollars to me.
