Interview is long (22min) but it's worth the watch.  I've been a big fan of Mr. Stewart for a long time because of his levelheadedness.  He admits that he is mostly ignorant of the risks of drilling (he has at least heard from Josh Fox as he was on the show plugging GASLAND) but says that IF it can be done safely he is absolutely on board and will actively try to promote the adoption of nat gas as a transportation fuel.
