Drink Up, Mateys!

Re: Drink Up, Mateys!

Note to self:

Astrazine causes feminine characteristics in male frogs. Astrazine is in waterways around Washington, DC. Therefore, if I would drink water out of those waterways, I might develop female characteristics such as laying-eggs (ovulation).

Maybe Astrazine-polluted waterways might make me a female. That would get me affirmative action in the job market, plus sympathy of co-workers and my employer. That might solve my income problem.... And the five extra-years of life-span for being a female would be a nice bonus in this deal too.

lol

Why subject yourself to that -just claim to be a highly same sex oriented. You will qualify for a 'quota' just as well. After all -we have to keep creating these categories - after all being black or hispanic is just too limiting for millions of white folks.

The estrogen in the bargain lets you live five years longer. Estrogen keeps your heart healthy and your whole body younger. No homo-sexual affirmative-action quota could guarantee me that little bonus.

LOL and I guess you get the bonus of mammaries to help you jiggle your way to the top :eek:

Fracking shale thousands of feet below the surface of the Earth is likely to have zero affect upon ground-water supplies that are used for drinking. This is just common sense because water wells go down a few hundred feet, not thousands of feet beneath the surface of the Earth.

This will give you a better understanding of how easy it is for two different well bores (differences in depth is irrelevant) to communicate.

Not only is it common sense, it's also common knowledge. Take note of the sources of the two links here. I'm not advocating any bandwagon activist power grab effort, I'm objectively pointing out what is.

If fracing is totally safe, then why did Cheney a la Halliburton need their exemption back in 2005? Here's why: (scroll to sections 4 & 5 in the link)

From Halliburton’s Manual for the Independent Operator:

“An improperly designed or poorly performed stimulation treatment can allow a hydraulic fracture to enter a water zone.”

Reading through the Greenspanese in the Haliburton manual, it sounds like the blasting of the rock thousands of feet beneath the surface could cause a rock fracture far above, in the water aquifer, and therefore injection fluids into the drill-hole could get into the aquifer. If that is a real possibility, then wouldn't lining the first thousand feet of the drill-hole or bore-hole be the solution to negating the risk of water contamination?

I'm not a fracking engineer, but it would seem to me that a stainless-steel liner of the bore-hole would negate any risk of injection-fluids getting into municipal water supplies. If the bore-hole is large enough in diametre, this should be a relatively easy thing to do in the field.

But what do I know? Any fracking-engineers reading this would be more qualified to comment here on a cost-effective solution to negating the risk of contamination of municipal water supplies by injection fluids into oil/gas drill-holes.
