One concern I have is that if fracking is as destructive as claimed...

Wherever did you get the idea that fracking is "destructive"?

I live in the middle of the Barnett Shale and there is absolutely nothing "destructive" about it.

It's not like mining tar sands. It's like drilling a well. Which, upon completion, is reduced to a wellhead.

Really, where did you get that idea?

There HAS to be a natural reaction to the ground water with this type of drilling, it is not possible that “stuff” ( I am not a scientist )does not leech into the ground water, which you and your neighbors drink and wash in!
I am not necessarily predisposed to hating on the technology, but the proof of fracking safety is not predominately self evident. Should I be mistaken, I would welcome your evidence, please share.
