1 DR. TEAL: It is better not to have Ayers' and Ray's names. 



2 DR. GRASSLE: Yes, I definitely wanted to take that out. 



3 (Simultaneous discussion.) 



4 DR. VALENTINE: Since these are our conclusions, this half page 



5 here, we ought to be a little careful with our language, I think. 



6 DR. BOTHNER: I think that is right--so we will take this out. 



7 But you are not going to take away the reason why-- 



8 DR. GRASSLE: No, no, just the parenthesis. 



9 DR. BOTHNER: Did we underline here? 



10 DR. GRASSLE: We did, in fact, but I do not know if we would want 



11 to. 



12 DR. MACIOLEK: I do not think the document should have underlines. 



13 DR. GRASSLE: Yes, let's not underline. 



14 DR. MACIOLEK: Page, you were saying that that last sentence 



15 probably will not be clear to the general reader, and I am sure you are 



16 right. 



17 DR. GRASSLE: We deleted it. The whole parenthesis is deleted. 



18 DR. MACIOLEK: Oh, everything in the parenthesis is deleted? 



19 (Simultaneous discussion.) 



20 DR. GRASSLE: Only the underlining there would appear-- 



21 DR. BOTHNER: Would you read the sentence, Fred? How much is 



22 left? 



23 DR. GRASSLE: "There would appear to be little impact on the 



24 feasibility of exploration or production drilling." 



25 DR. BOTHNER: The person who reads that and who is not aware of 



26 the fact that we are talking about the advantages of slant drilling will 



27 never get it. 



28 I think you have to say, "Because exploration is possible by slant 



29 drilling, there is no need to drill immediately above a canyon." 



30 (Simultaneous discussion.) 



31 DR. AURAND: In exploration they do not like to do slant drilling. 



32 For exploration they do not like to do it. They do a little bit of it, 



33 but not very much.
