[Readers were starting to complain about the old sandbox getting a bit "stale" (some would have chosen a more robustly descriptive term, but then we do promote decorum on these pages), so we open a new one.  This day is propitious for another reason, today I brought home my fourth Jeep Grand Cherokee and bid a tearful good-bye to my last one, an unimaginably reliable vehicle that saw us through thick and thin, on/off road for thirteen years.  To me these cars have become as comfortable as a pair of old shoes, even though its designers (marketers?) try to foo-fooize the newer models with every imaginable button, beep, and display.  Hope this brand new baby grows up to have the legs of its forebears.]

    Perhaps you can take this up with your philosophical colleague, Dr. Rebane, who has indicated that agrees with the study conclusions in regard to fluid disruptions and displacements underground. These studies, articles and government and citizen reactions are not going away anytime soon just because they involve the OIL and GAS industry. Oh no, you mean resource extraction involves impacts- oil, gas, metals mining? Who knew ๐Ÿ™‚
    Its pretty clear you don’t have a clue about science.

    When I posted that Nevada Citys spherical gadfly had one foot in the grave and another on a roller skate George told me to knock it off.
    Much to be said for moderating ones blog so as to maintain a minimum level of decorum.

    “Jon”, oh I see you capitalized your name, hmmm. I look at the hysteria that runs amok when you liberals get emotionally overcome with guilt or hate. Just as I have written about the hoax of “global warming” caused by man since 1997, this is the next one. It is all in the vein of stopping the use of oil. Nothing more, nothing less. All the “studies” are not definitive but just a bunch of guesses and opinions to jinn up the lib/econut base. Somehow we who expose your hoaxes will prevail but you will do a lot of damage to the planet’s people’s psyche until then.

    Todd, those earthquake studies are about as definitive as things get in matters of seismic geology. What do you propose- placing cameras down there to record the fluids and the rumbling? Not a bit of emotion with that issue, just interesting science. Did you copy that rant from a Rush monologue? Is it some revelation to you that the world is moving rapidly toward renewables and pointing out the impacts of continued resource extraction through fracking? Ripping up large parts of mother earth to grab the last ounce of oil has major implications.

    Jon you are just another simple minded apocalyptic human. Easily swayed and turned into a sheeple. Rush came to the issue after me so perhaps he takes his cue from me.
    I am all for energy sources that are not oil. I think we should use it all. Energy use is what has given humans their standard of living here in America. Do you even know how much energy falls on the earth from our sun everyday? Go google it.
    My positions on energy are mainstream and if your ilk tries to remove the fuel of capitalism from the people you will see their wrath. Just be careful what you ask for.
