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.

New York State DEC Releases Revised Report on Hydrofracking
DEC Commissioner Joe Martens declares that slick water, high volume hydrofracking can be done safely, but not in the watersheds of New York City and Syracuse. Why is that? If it is safe, it should be OK for the whole state. Joe Martens is wrong in my view. Hydrofracking CANNOT be done safely. Therefore it should be banned permanently everywhere.
