What was going on in the oil industry at that time was indicative of what they were writing. I do remember a recession where real estate went down over here and it probably wasn't until maybe the late '80s early 1990 where we started to diversify our economy. So the writers did have to make up stuff in a way. Again it's not just Larry there are more factors at work. I don't think the Cali thing was a good idea personally. I do think that in the later years the focus should have been more on the fights with Weststar. Maybe keeping Wendell longer maybe witnessing a fight between Wendell and McKay for westar as opposed to riding Wendell off. The reason that was done is because William smithers asked for more money or his agent did and they decided to write his character out and not renew the contract. I think they should have kept William smithers I think there should have been a duel for West Star between him and Carter McKay George Kennedy. I think a fight like that and then the Ewing's getting in that and Clif barnes and Cartel in mix that would have been a much better focus than having a Cali and all this other stuff. Having Wendell get away with the range wars and not being able to pin it on him entirely that would have been interesting to see how that would have worked out. See Wendell doesn't seem like the kind of guy that would have started a range war but wouldn't have been interesting if he got away with it. I don't know how because he admitted it on tape but they could have done more other things than Callie and other stuff they could have been more creative. I think more of West Star should have been earlier. I think we should have seen more of not just Weststar but I'm a big corporations trying to eat the Independents that would have been more fun. But again Philip capice did not have the brain he was a moron and I'm glad he's gone</p></blockquote><p></p>
