Nose bleeds? This time of year with the heat on? Wood stove and fireplace both going drying the air, I have nose bleeds too!

And who documents "compliance?"

(careful- I know this one. )

But you can read it too - in Ingraffea's report.

Hint: lt's the same answer as the one found in the investigation

of BP/Halliburton's safety "Inspection records" after the Deepwater Horizon spill.

This is too easy - people can actually look up your answers themselves, on any NON-industry sites.

Ingraffea has been debunked over and over, even by his own friends at Cornell. He is hardly a reliable source.

All of this what if, and this might happen is a perfect example of the "Chicken Little Syndrome".

Just because of a random occurrence of circumstance (chicken little being in the right place to get hit by an acorn) the anti shale people extrapolate recurring incidences and impending doom. All without any proof from studies, reviews etc. It's all a guess.

I suppose we should all never leave the house because we are far more likely to be killed in a car accident than be harmed by shale development.

Don't you think the increase in deaths on WV highways in "WATER" TRUCK ACCIDENTS, might skew those results just a bit?

Now who is avoiding the point?

He must know some folks that have benefitted from the activity and is jealous of  they're windfall - or maybe he knows Josh Fox personally and has some financial gain to be had for his vigor - or maybe he works for the Saudis?  Whatever!  Give it rest Rodney - the truth will come out in due time!

MJ,

He is just one of many whose mind has been poisoned by the misinformation spread by the anti shale development crowd.

Misinformation? Why I thought it was all the "toxins" and "carcinogens"spewed by the O/G that broke down his mind.  Poor fellow!  I'm sorry Rodney, but hydraulic fracturing has been going on for decades - same process - just newer, safer methods.  The only open pits I have seen are the cattle waste ponds that emit methane 24/7.  Same stuff is spread over open fields 24/7 for fertilizer.  OMG - is that allowed?  Are you not concerned with where your waste products go?  I know talking sense to this crowd is hopeless Mark, but it is fun trying.  I am going to go flare some methane from dinner now, so as not to add to global warming.  I hope I don't catch the house on fire....

MJ,

Warn the neighbors about your methane flare, wouldn't want to cause any unnecessary nose bleeds (chuckle) you are funny.

It's interesting that you mention agriculturally produced methane. The anti shale development crowd also want to tax farmers for the methane produced by their farm animals. How hypocritical. They want to tax (or eliminate) a source of their food but refuse to stop eating. Plus they want to eliminate hydrocarbon development but refuse to stop heating their homes with them or driving their vehicles or stop wearing clothes etc. etc. etc. The anti shale crowd are nothing but hypocrites.

Thanks for the laugh MJ

They are building a new commercial plaza down the street. A woman who lives next door had a heart attack. It must mean that plazas or plaza construction causes heart attacks, right ? BAN ALL PLAZAS, NOW !
