I've dealt with them before in my line of work. As well as mining.

Ah...so you wouldn't exactly extol the negatives if you depend on mining and gas companies for your income.

They don't pay for us.

DeafCaroline · 11-17-2011, 02:56 PM

Who's "us"? Are you an independent consultant?

No.

DeafCaroline · 11-17-2011, 02:59 PM

Ok, have you been commissioned to do work that would be of benefit to gas/oil and/or mining companies?

No. I work for the people.

Koko, what about the contents of the brine found in local private wells that harbor the Marcellus area?

Even if there are no traces of contaminants from hydrofracking, studies have been indicating that there is an increased amount of methane in the solution that was not there previously.

It may not have been directly from the fracking chemicals, but it is entirely and likely possible that it is induced from the pressure of the machinery and process involved, as a result of it.

I think I will have one of Banjo's fried pies. I will make mine apple with vanilla. Chocolate does not go well with apples.

Banjo makes fried pies? I love fried apple pies. Cherry are pretty good, too.

**deafskeptic** · 11-17-2011, 03:19 PM

Well he mentioned he remembered when pies were fried in the what did we have for lunch section...

Yeah cherry too. I will need to use Splenda for these dishes as those fruit deserts have more carbs per meal than my dietitian allows.

Yes, that was in reference to McDonald's. They used to have fried pies.

Fried pies were a big Southern thing when I lived in TN.

Tell that to the Japanese. There would be no fish within 500 miles of Japan.

Dolphins in Taiji, very very very very controversial.
Case of being TOO responsible.

You are a very unique person. I usually prefer to stay within the topic. As you can see, I am pretty successful. I ignored the pies, even though it is dinner time.

Damn it. Lost my post.

Short answer. Brine, not so much. Pennsylvannia is known for its brine/saline water in shallow groundwater. Hard to pinpoint that. PA drills 20,000 water wells a year. Methane, sure. Anytime you drill for gas, methane can be a problem.

Like I said, I advocate for more of these studies to understand better the interaction in a complex geology for a complex situation.

I love anything with honey. I think shortbread are probably my favorite cookie. But if it is a cookie, I'll eat it.
