I should have read on before posting my reply to KT rider. I could have killed two birds wit one shoot and saved some bits or bytes or something.

Apparently there's some confusion here on my part and maybe KT rider's re the hydrogen sulfide gas. H₂S(hydrogen sulfide) is a naturally occurring gas; H₂S₂(hydrogen disulfide) is a stinky inorganic compound that quickly decomposes to H₂S and free sulfur I suppose.

In any case, you're submitting these sites all around us may in fact be hydrogen sulfide wells. Could be. I've not looked into it any further to determine that. I just assumed this was being extracted from sour gas/oil.

I decided to do a screen grab from Google Earth of the site I checked out for grins and purposes of discussion:

Thanks for the info.

What county is that and I can tell you whether the gas is sour or not? If they are burning a flare or have a wind sock, it is sour. They will have signs at the gate saying so as well.
