LOL<br /><br />Get your head out of Vera's arse for a minute and wrap it around the truth. OK, it's true, that mile of rock isn't monolithic, but it damn sure is solid. If it wasn't why wouldn't gravity let water seep down through it? Why wouldn't the natural gas, which is lighter than air, rise up through it? Because it's SOLID !!! Why do ya think they have to 'frack' it? Because even the gas can't escape!<br />"Subterranean waters 20 miles underground commonly breach the surface" Bwahahahahaaa! Now there's a corker! You might want to check out what really happens to create those "steam vents". Here's a simple page even you can comprehend: http://www.hometrainingtools.com/geothermal-features/a/1443/<br />"...high pressures can persist for as long as six years before an equilibrium is established. During this time FF is continuously forced upwards where the weight of overburden is least." HUH? Your trying to tell us the weight of the mile or so, of "overburden" as you incorrectly refer to it as, is less restricting than the well pipe? If that's true then how does the gas coming out of the pipe manage to reach 800 or so PSI? Why ONLY 800 PSI? If that pressure remains so great as you claim, wouldn't it take the path of least resistance? ie- the WELLPIPE? <br />"...deeply buried polluted pools...", "Hydrologists searched for this precious commodity and found it at unexpected depths" Really? Is this a fact you can substantiate or just another one your fantastic whoppers? It sounds like Abraham Lustgarten BS from ProPublica and the LA Times.<br />According to the USGS water is only about 1200 feet at it's deepest; http://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2008/5059/section4.html, of course that's only their estimate. I suppose they could be off by about 100,000 feet! Bwahahahahahaaa, you ARE too funny!<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16701990050622232181noreply@blogger.com
