From a fairly credible source, I've heard that a fellow blogging brother has become involved in legal action. This is a huge mistake.

Fellow Fracktivists: Stay Thirsty in 2012

Thermopylae 2012: Rtes. 187 & 6

  

If you didn’t get wind of this story yet, this guy is my new hero.

You gotta love it: the people at Range Resources were ignoring his township’s repeated requests to stop using a gravel road, and the DEP told the township it was in violation of erosion and sediment regulations on that same road, so Cogan House Township Supervisor Dan Roupp took matters into his own hands - grabbed a chain saw - and cut down a bunch of trees to block the gravel road to all natural gas truck traffic.

Sheriff Buford Pusser would be damn proud.

Yeah, he did kill some defenseless oxygen-producing trees, but considering what the natural gas industry is doing to our environment for generations to come, it’s an acceptable sacrifice to this blogger. Et tu, Dr. E?

Being cosmically inspired by his actions, I had the following epiphany. I’ve just come back from a few days hanging out in the Wysox area on Echo Beach Road. It seems the intersection of Rtes 187 and 6 is a pretty strategic crossroad. Put another way – a chokepoint. While grabbing coffee every morning at the corner market by the big sycamore tree, I counted hundreds of water tankers, dump trucks and other gas industry vehicles passing through this intersection in a matter of hours every   single   day.  

Following Mr.  Roupp’s lead, I’m sure everyone has or knows someone with an old clunker. You know - a car or tractor near end of life that still runs, but has a book value of negatory $300.00 and wouldn’t be missed should it get bumped a few times or hauled away. Imagine if we got 15 or 20 of these rust buckets together and they all just happened to sputter to a complete stop at the aforementioned intersection at the same time at let’s say, 0730h. Would chaos ensue? Would fracking come to a halt, if only for a few hours, while the cars were hauled away? Would someone get a message that we’ve finally had enough? Would others be inspired to take similar actions of targeted civil disobedience? You tell me.

Anyone in? Send me an e-mail. Once we hit 15 takers, it’s ON!

Renegade Reborn

Thanks to my brother at FRACKED for posting this video. I just had a chance to view it for the first time.

After watching it twice, I simply ask: Are we all doing enough?




My brother, in whatever realm you travel, I am with you.

SRBC Meeting Occupidiots: Unfortunate Sons

What a bunch of mindless, misinformed, moronic miscreants. And no, I'm not talking about the SRBC Commissioners.

When that sad excuse for a young man dropped the first f-bomb at the 12/15 meeting, I knew this public hearing wasn't going to stay on track for much longer. When that sadder excuse of a public servant chairperson adjourned the meeting, only to reconvene ( was that even legal? ) and vote on water withdrawals for their fellow bed mates in Corbett's Carnal Cabal, I knew any chance for calm to be restored was over.

I hope whoever brought these sad excuses for activists to this meeting is really, really proud of what they've accomplished. From what I saw, a lot of these young men and women have some really deep-seated problems, and truly need help.

Well, fear not, occupidiots, I bring you good tidings. Me and a few of my silver-locked friends have decided that a little reciprocity is in order. When we pick the time and place for our version of a Mic Check at one of your gatherings, we hope you have your Mommy & Daddy's phone number prominently listed on your iPhone or tattoed on your arm, provided there's any space left.

Enjoy your 15 minutes of fame - insignificant as it is. You're about to find out how much gas some of us refugees from the '60s still have left in our tanks. Payback - as they say - is a bitch.
