Curiously, New York City Now Needs More Natural Gas and Pipelines

New York City public housing faces an energy crisis brought on by an inadequate supply of natural gas the City, at every opportunity, says it doesn’t want.

Three fascinating articles appeared recently about New York City’s natural gas usage, The City, like much of New York, is an exceedingly strange place by normal standards; one where the facts must be roundly denied in favor of the political correctness rules of the day.

The Proponents of the DRBC Fracking Ban Are Anti-Science

Proponents of the DRBC fracking ban are, plainly and simply, anti-science; unwilling to accept the results on continuous ongoing water studies in the SRBC.

As someone who lives in the area covered by the Delaware River Basin Commission (DRBC), I read with dismay recent letters to the editor encouraging the DRBC to usurp private property rights to appease a loud, anti-science minority who oppose the goal of energy independence for the United States and the…

Whiny Delaware Riverkeeper Says It Should Be Above the Law

The Delaware Riverkeeper Network, personalized as Maya van Rossum, a/k/a Delaware Povertykeeper tells FERC it should be above the law with no responsibility.

We are a country governed by the rule of law. Part of our system of laws (for better or worse) invests government bureaucracies with delegated power to make rules and regulations–which carry the weight of law. Children who are not disciplined (at home and at school) grow up to be adults who think silly…
