Thank you very much.
Thank you again to our witnesses for getting up early to be there. Those of us from the west realize just how early that feels.
I want to focus on you, Mr. Streeper, because I think this brings home the story for many people: what has happened in your communities with the advent of oil and gas. I wonder if you could give us a snapshot of the standard of living pre- oil and gas to now. How has the oil and gas industry positively affected the average person who lives in that area, and their lifestyle?
