He always does something interesting. <br /><br />Interesting read and I don't have the knowledge or ambition to engage in intelligent conversation regarding the issues. I am sure there is not a simple answer and I'm sure some sort of solution needs to be found to balance things, but I do know no matter how strongly one believes our population isn't going to be able to do away completely with oil/gas. Transportation and warmth are things we need. She is definitely as interesting read and so well <br />versed.

Sandra could well continue to write a book, I will read that many times,and enjoy it even more, all over and over again. My admiration, to Sandra for speaking out, and to you,for putting it here so we can all read.

I think her writing about this ...I have an opinion. I think her writing about this from a jail cell is brilliant! We have to stop them from destroying everything around us. Our water, soil, air, all of it. I'd like to make a yell out with her. STOP CUTTING DOWN THE TREES!! Everyone wants to know why there's so much wind now. There's nothing to stop it. They keep cutting down the trees! Remember this, trees block wind, sop up extra water or rain, give us oxygen to breath while breathing in our pollutents so they may survive. The trees and plants are vital to our existence but they will not survive when the ground they have their roots embedded in is poisoned by toxins from fracking. There. I've said my opinion. Thanks for asking for it. :) Broomjockey!BroomJockeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17280077281225509071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-521506189961896893.post-43768192880285849672013-04-22T01:25:45.512-04:002013-04-22T01:25:45.512-04:00Wow!

There is a permit application for a well less than 1000 feet from my house. Sometimes, I think I should just try to sell out and leave. We have been working on convincing our town board to at least pass a moratorium. They are on the brink, but remain undecided. It's really worrisome.The Dancing Donkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16274299120708749101noreply@blogger.com
