Range Resources cannot hire enough people right now. They are just down the road in Washington, PA.

What kind of people they hiring? Info?

I will make a call. I think they are needing pipeline engineers (plastic gathering system). There steel lines and compression was recently sold to Markwest which may be needing help in their compressor station and gas treatment ("extraction" for those of us that are old school) plant. I have a good contact their and would have moved, but I cannot go to work with them due a conflict of interest with another company.

Let me ask this question about Mountaintop Mining: Isn't it true that in MTM, the mine is permitted or allowed to fill in streams? I'm not talking about run-off gaullies, either, I mean year-round water streams. No other industry is allowed to fill in streams, and all streams and waterways are considered to be public property, right?
