Hydraulic fracturing in Pennsylvania is causing this. We must shut down natural gas drilling in the US!!!!!!!
The 12th Imam had Mexican.
Every time a Muslim says a prayer a demon is conjured.
Actually, they are going gangbusters in drilling for natural gas in Wyoming & ND.
You might want to double check your sources, because those states economies are rolling like gangbusters. I have a friend who’s brother-in-law is raking in big bucks drilling up there using the fractured method you described.
Come again?
If the earth under SA is porous, and the day the event was filmed has especially low barometric pressure, then an easy explanation is release of trapped, compressed air. The air would want to seep out everywhere, but if there were a weak point (where the overlaying sand was shallowest and therefore weighed the least) more air would rush out there than anywhere else, and if the sand were blown out, it would represent an even smaller resistance to the continued release of trapped air from that same place. So it all vents from right there.
We live in Gnu Yak but have a camp on a Lake in PA...it is amazing the increase in activity just 10 miles away!!
How many times do we have to tell them to quit burying Al Gore in the sand after he has eaten broccoli!
Makes sense.
Since there appears to be little accumulation of new sand, obviously what is erupting is a clear gas. Most likely, air.
Maybe the inlet is a cave far away.
ask al gore:
it’s a ma earth phart.
Not saying this is bogus, but this is the same site and writer who was posted on here yesterday saying that the 3/5 compromise in the US constitution had to do with the Founders believing that blacks were less than human.
Oh and it was also claimed that the site, NewsBlaze, is Glenn Becks. It isn’t.
No, I know the author, and he never said the authors of the constitution thought that. He said that many white Americans thought blacks were less than human, but they have obviously gotten past their racist history because an majority of white people elected a black man as their president.
He is also right, during the first 80 years of our country man, many Southerners considered blacks to be sub human. But he never once stated in his article what you claim he stated.
When he said a country that once considered blacks to be 1/5 human, and he was talking about the people, not the constitutional requirement for counting for the purpose of the census and representation of the South during a time when America aloud the Southern states to have slaves.
You need to get your facts straight.
Yup. But I heard that the enviros are blaming all kinds of things on fracing — earthquakes, gasses used seeping into ground water, etc. They are trying to shut it down.
Only time will tell.
