Anonymous Coward User ID: 957306 United States 06/07/2010 04:35 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Gas well blowout in PA too [link to www.google.com] No one hurt, just spewed "proprietary" fracking fluid all over, prob. already contaminated with radioactivity from being in the ground as well as containing a "secret ingredient" so toxic that the millions of gallons of water used to frack cannot be treated in a regular water treatment facility. BP can poison our seas, and foreign owned gas companies can poison our land. They are currently trying to frack in upstate NY, in one of the richest sources of fresh groundwater in this country. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 995841 United States 06/07/2010 04:37 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I read here on GLP on some thread that the reason these wells are blowing up is because the core temperature of the Earth is rising. Does anyone know if there's any real science behind this speculation? If that's the case, this means some really serious end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it type doom. |

BRIEF AND TO THE POINT User ID: 381742 United States 06/07/2010 04:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Zeta's right again!! Poor people do poor people things, and rich people do rich people things. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it! when you rob Paul to give to Peter ... ... ... you will always get Peters support! :Brieffromnativea: |
