Logical, balanced, fact-based presentation by obviously informed guys. This media should be the basis of scientific and social debate

Good Video! Definitely a fine line to balance between abundant, cheap natural resources and protecting Mother Nature.

I personally think natural gas is the future of America’s Energy Industry.

Also, Friendly reminder there isn’t a “k” in hydraulic fracturing - aka frac’ing! Love ya’lls content!

The distance between the well-bore and water table will vary greatly depending on the site. Nonetheless a great video.

Fracking is how you heat your home, and drive a car, feed your family, and get to work so on and so on so you can pay taxes and not go to jail . . So I'm gonna take my ass to work .

While this is narrators lack of clear diction makes it difficult to listen to as he slurs his words throughout the video. That's too bad because this could be helpful to many.
