Now he just needs to figure out how to refine it, store it, and then sell the fuel gained from it. He could be on to something big, could be looking at the next oil tycoon.

I have family in Indiana, maybe I can get a good deal on some land and start doing what the government won't let oil companies do, tap our resources for our own good.

Quite a few farmers in Montana have drilled natural gas wells.
Use it for heating and running a generator. Sure would feel good to not have to rely on any one else.
