A NY woman writes that her family is split. She has heard enough and is against fracking. He wants the money. Wife reports both have seen Gasland, yet he still needs to be convinved. He wants to speak directly with impacted people.
I responded, it's a bit much for these people to deal with black water, dead cattle, 24x7 flaring and truck traffic, AND dealing with random calls from pro-fracking NYers who need to be convinced.
I suggested he start by watching these videos:
