Yep, and in the meantime, states like Pennsylvania and North Dakota are exploiting their own natural gas resources and creating thousands of jobs in the process.

Somehow, only in NY does drilling for natural gas become an issue about contaminating drinking water.

The pity is == it is estimated that NYS actually has MORE natural gas than most other states.

NYS will not LEAD in anything anymore other than to lead in in obstruction.

I wonder how soon they will oppose drilling for frozen methane, which the USA has humongous reserves (way more than all the oil ever discovered). FM could be burned easily in cars equipped to run on Natural Gas.

I do find it very strange however, (conspiracy???), that frozen methane has been put on the back burner (pun intended) or even completely ignored. Such vast resources could easily exert downward pressure on fossil fuel prices.
