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.

Living the Drill (video): Deposit, NY, Meeting on Gas Drilling
State Theatre
Deposit, NY
Introduction by Mark Ohe.
Despite some initial rowdiness (and a couple of F-Bombs) from the audience, Laurie Stratton gives a preliminary presentation as to how leaseholders and local communities can expect to be treated by gas drilling companies.
[With apologies for the sound interference- It's worth watching inspite of that!]
I admire Laurie's composure in the face of rude, crude people. The disruptive people did get sorted out very quickly.
