Lex Anteinternet: Blog Mirror: Today In Wyoming's History. Bad economic news

I posted this a day or so ago, and then heard later that same day that these rates were even worse in some other Wyoming counties than I'd posted here.

Added to that, the rig report for the US indicates that the number of U.S. drilling rigs is now at an all time low. The lowest ever, apparently which is a few shy of the prior low in 1999.

Oddly, this comes at the same time as a rebound, to some degree, in prices. But it takes a long time to turn things around, and the prices still haven't risen to he level that makes further exploration viable.

Lex Anteinternet?

This blog has been around since 2009. In the very first post, we asked the question: "What the heck is this blog about?"

Our answer to the question was: "The intent of this blog is to try to explore and learn a few things about the practice of law prior to the current era. That is, prior to the internet, prior to easy roads, and the like. How did it work, how regional was it, how did lawyers perceive their roles, and how were they perceived?"

We also noted: "Part of the reason for this, quite frankly, has something to do with minor research for a very slow moving book."

All of this is still true, but the focus of the blog has changed somewhat. It now focuses on the era from 1890 to 1920 in general, rather than on the law and lawyers specifically, although that may be far from obvious. It's also become the location where we comment on anything we feel moved to comment on.

We hope you'll feel moved to comment as well. While we moderate every comment, so as to weed out Spam, we greatly appreciate the comments where they are offered, and hope to see more.

Thank you for stopping in!
