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.

Retirement Ruined: Personal Story of Truman Burnett (2009)
Mr. Burnett's simple story of how his beautiful property was ruined forever by gas drilling spills nearby speaks for itself. The gas corporation that is responsible for this tragedy? Chesapeake Energy. Our good neighbors.

Oh, yes, all Chesapeake has to do is invent a magnet-kid-of-a-thingie which will attract the hydrochloric acid and other chemicals and leave the water pristine again. Until then, this man's property and his retirement are ruined because of greed- not HIS greed, mind you, but the gas company's greed.Let's spoil Mother Nature's beauty for the almighty dollar.What a tragedy!
