32. The suit is over the devaluation of his property, a 5M ranch.

He is paid 40.3M by Exon, which is staying out of the suit.

The water tower is owned by another company, Cross Timber Water Supply Corp, which has set up operations on his road to supply water to all the frack sites. Sounds like they didn't make the connection, but surprised it wasn't moved.

It was on Think Progress today. http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2014/02/21/3316881/exxon-ceo-protests-fracking/
