Fracking Is Cool

[westwall]

There is no scientific theory about studying tectonics by inducing earthquakes, never has been, never could be.

And yet that's exactly what we do on a small scale. We set off explosions which initiates a P wave, which we then use to measure thickness of the crust, plate boundaries, depth of the mantle etc.

Once again you demonstrate a complete lack of scientific understanding.

Westwall said fracking poisoned the water when he could blame it on liberals.

That's was AFTER he stated Fracking had no adverse effects.

Figure that out.

So then, as a scientist, you believe that fracking is actually a massive counter earthquake experiment being conducted by eminent scholars of geology. When you put it that way it all makes perfect sense.

No, that is not what I stated. What I stated is the claim of poisoned ground water did NOT come from fracking. It came from the MTBE that the California Air Resources Board mandated be added to the gasoline as an oxygenate you lying sack of poo. It is you asshats who are trying to cover your progressive asses by blaming ground water pollution on fracking when it is well known that it was YOU who fucked up the groundwater.

You're a pretty sad example of a progressive. They can usually put together better arguments and flames. You're pathetic.

Here's the worst part of it for someone like you.......the beer.

I like it when you try to mix pop culture science with maniacal rhetoric. You're good at it.

Sure thing silly boy. Here you go. Learn some science instead of the propaganda you bleat like the good little sheep you are... Take a gander below nitwit. Here are just a couple of the HUNDREDS of reports and studies that deal with MTBE. And lookey there, Pennsylvania was affected too. Amazing what you can find when you actually LOOK for information rather than spewing bullshit propaganda.

MTBE Water Contamination: Key Considerations for Remediation,Risk Assessment, and Risk Management
Environmental Data Pages - MTBE Water Contamination



METHYL tertiary-butyl ether, more commonly known as MTBE, is a chemical Janus. It benefits air quality by making gasoline burn cleaner, thus reducing automobile emissions. But it can also find its way into groundwater supplies and give drinking water an unpleasant taste and odor. At present, more than 20 public drinking water wells in California have ceased water production for this reason. Worse yet, the health effects of MTBE are uncertain-the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency currently classifies MTBE as a possible human carcinogen.

I wonder how many "scientists" share all their best ideas on a public forum like this, rather than writing for a science journal or some other reputable publication or website. I guess we're all just very lucky to have someone of your indisputable stature and reputation performing such a noble minded public service. Keep up the good work.

Oh lookey here. limy still pushing this lie. Here's the deal junior. That faucet has had that problem for DECADES. Going all the way back to the 1930's! Yep. If you weren't such a brainless political hack, and actually did some of your own...well you know research, and actually understood science you might not have your head so far up your ass!

Sheesh. You twits are so amazingly anti science it's amazing!


"Water Flammable Before Fracking
In Gasland’s most poignant scene, a man in is filmed lighting his tap water on fire. The movie asserts that hydraulic fracturing (also known as fracking) has made this possible by contaminating nearby water sources. McAleer, however, discovered and proved residents in the man’s neighborhood have been able to light their water on fire since at least the 1930s, long before people began producing natural gas in the area. The gas mixing with groundwater appears to be a natural phenomenon.

McAleer was in Chicago when he decided to see a local showing of Gasland. After viewing the movie, his journalistic instincts took over and he started asking questions about what he had seen in the movie. McAleer came across a 1976 study by the Colorado Division of Water that had interesting implications.

“I checked online, and very quickly I came across what seemed to be pretty good, detailed research that showed people were able to burn their tap water years before fracking ever started,” McAleer says."
