“In Texas, years ago, almost all of the oil came from surface operations. Then someone got the idea that there were greater sources of supply deeper down. A well was drilled five thousand feet deep. The result? A gusher. Too many of us operate on the surface. We never go deep enough to find supernatural resources. The result is, we never operate at our best. More time and investment is involved to go deep but a gusher will pay off.” YearsWellsIdeasEnoughTimeResultsPayFiveGreaterFeetSourceInvolvedThousandResourcesYears AgoInvestmentDeeperSurfaceOilOperationsMore TimeTexasNatural Resources Author:Alfred Armand Montapert

“Bypass surgery, angioplasty,and even diagnostic angiograms are so over used that, in my opinion, it constitutes criminal behaviour by the cardiologists and surgeons involved. Well controlled scientific studies have shown bypass surgery simply doesn't work, except to relieve severe chest pain. Those who have the surgery didn't even have a trend of longevity benefit compared to those treated without it. Yet, each year hundreds of thousands cave into the obvious fear tactics used by agressive heart doctors and submit to the bypass operation” YearsWellsHeartPainUsedOpinionStudyInvolvedBenefitsDoctorsObviousCriminalsTreatedOperationsControlledChestsTrendsSubmitBehaviourLongevitySurgerySevereCavesTacticsSurgeonsBypassCardiologistAgressive Author:Julian Whitaker
