Reading CRAP like this is what puts me to sleep, thanks for the medicine.

I spent a week in Northeast PA near Milton back in 6-12-2010 helping my wife tend to her mother.
A brother in law was up in arms about losing their water well with good cause, rural area homes in PA are mostly on water wells.

The entire area was alive with drilling rigs & trucks out of MICH.
It seems like PA is like Ohio there is no control of the oilfield drilling industry.

I went through the oil boom in Mount Gilead, Ohio area in the 60s, it was a full blown circus.
Drilling rigs setting in the front lawns of the little homes on the main street of the town, mud knee deep in the streets.

To this day the the industry will not say what is in the fluid they use to frack the wells with.

As a side note, law firms are adding lawyers as fast as they can to hande the work-load of future cases in the fracking lawsuits.
This is pretty much a nation wide issue.
