In 1930, my greatgrandparents purchased a beautiful farm in Bradford County, PA, in a little hamlet called French Azilum. In the summer, we spent time there, resting, breathing in the fresh air, enjoying the wild flowers, the bright stars and planets on a clear moonlit night, and swimming in the Susquehanna River. If gas drilling is allowed to continue, Bradford County and all of Pennsylvania will be forever changed, ruined beyond repair.

Gulf Oil Spill Disaster: If It Were In Your Backyard
See what the oil spill catastrophe would look like where you live in this interactive map. This is an eyeopener. Move the oil spill to your hometown and see how big an area will be covered.
You do realize that the reason the area of the oil spill in the gulf is so large is because it is basically an OCEAN and the oil gets carried across the water, right? You do also realize that the oil spill is an OIL spill and that in the Marcellus they are drilling for Natural Gas, which if a well leaked, it would EVAPORATE into the air, right? Do you think the natural gas would magically turn into oil, and then float on the trees across Pennsylvania? You sir, are a fucking idiot.
