65. I admire your deep, deep expertise on every subject there is! Seriously! But about this:

Dec 2015

I suggest you do some research on the dangers to our aquifers from the hundreds of chemicals being pumped into the ground. Many are known to cause cancer and many chemicals are not even identified. And how about earthquakes? http://www.msnbc.com/the-last-word/oklahoma-earthquakes-linked-fracking-study
I guess that poison in our water supplies and earthquakes are a small price to pay for higher oil company profits.

Good suggestion, but that really is what I do, and you're wrong (This is the problem with people assuming they are the smartest person in the room.)

My suggestion to you is to do you own research, for a year or two (it will take longer than that to cover all the published scientific research, but it will be a start). Then, you will be within reach of having a glimmer of understanding of the issue. See, you can't get that knowledge from reading bullshit on the Internet. For example, your misunderstanding of the cause of earthquakes (and referencing MSNBC) speaks to that. Fracking does not cause earthquakes. Period. It's not up to me to school you on this, because you'll arrogantly reference some other unreliable site to support your incorrect notions.

Stick to your area of expertise, rhett, which is more limited than you think.
