About six months ago, I read an article that was so rabid, vehement in their opposition to fracking, talking about the terrible environmental, health hazards, other dangers that fracking was responsible for. I saw the article as an attempt to initiate a grass roots movement against fracking. Certainly, the forces behind the anti-fracking sentiments were left-wing, liberal in its origins, the same people behind the Global Warming tactics. I never heard or read another negative word about fracking, as their campaign to stop the energy boom that fracking had created seemed to have fizzled out. But the obscenely intense sentiments I read in the article stuck with me since. And now reading the story, I am sure the impetus behind the fears of gas leaks causing water contamination was definitely an effort by this group to bring a halt to the energy boom going on across the nation. Well, Thank God, the truth was revealed about the source of the water contamination otherwise, the fracking phenomena would have died an ugly death.

My buddy sure regrets that he gave up a chance for fracking on his property. He would have made a bundle.
Yup....read every bad report. Then went to a seminar. That wised him up.

For cryin’ outloud. Gas in the region has been in the well water for ever.

The headline is deceptive: The wells are used in the fracking process. If the integrity of the wells sucks, then one could argue that fracking is the root of the problem.
