what are your thoughts on fracking? relatively harmless to the environment or ecological terror?
the water table is not close to where all the fracking takes place.
i wish i could frack a gril

Concrete cassions around the main bore.
Minor earth tremors reported at some fracking sites.
Concrete, hard inflexible + localised tremor = ??
Any mathfags wanna calculate the risk?
aside from possible ecological impact, we can't ignore that fracking increases seismic activity
It has a funny name.

I think it's the name, sounds aggressive like you're whacking something. Drone has the same name based image problem, "drone" sounds ominous and "big brother"

I think it made me a shitton of money in the last six years.

It's okay if done the proper way. Business don't fucking care so they destroy the environment, which is why it has such a bad stigma. If it was regulated and had less idiots working sites, it probably wouldn't do much.
With that in mind it does poison local waters at varying level. Also should be banned in areas which use aquifers.

Or maybe those fuckers should just buy water filters instead of letting billions of dollars of oil sit in the ground

Meh, most of the water tables are being depleted anyway. Fracking in the grand scheme of things is the equivalent of a crack addict scraping his crack pipe. Everything will be sorted out by the end of this century, no worries. Also, never try to take a crack heads crack pipe away from him.

It surprises me that the media and even the government have moved away from UAV and toward drone, even though it does have these insidious, big-brother connotations which might also come from the use of "drone" to denote constant sound. I wonder if it's on purpose or just shortsightedness.
