Thanks Tony, I'll have to explain this to the other lineguys. We're starting to get a little miffed with all the uplifts lately. Like I said, when we had an agreement to make minimum fuel out of STL 40, no uplifts. However, they axed that and now nearly 80% of the time we get a call about 45 minutes before block to uplift to 40 from say, 38. Not a big deal, but a lot of work for us to pump 300 gallons. If it was an uplift of 10,000 pounds, it wouldn't be such a big deal because we'd be pumping longer than we were hooking up and disconnecting
