Uncivil Disobedience: Remember Wyoming!
Still here, my friends. Watching and waiting for someone to cross the line.
Everyone knows it's coming. Whether the guys in the black trucks with the blacked out windows do it, or a homeowner who's had one too many lies thrown their way - doesn't matter. It is coming and you can make book on it.
A few years back, I warned about the methane-laced bubbling waters yet to come. Just a few months after that post, the Susquehanna started bubbling near Sugar Run, PA. Nailed that one.
Now, unless you've been living in a cave, you know that the Towanda Creek valley in Bradford County is bubbling just about anywhere methane can find a spot to escape. People are getting sick from exposure to methane. And the criminals in Harrisburg are doing a massive cover up using our tax dollars to fund their crimes against humanity. And too many people are doing nothing. But that's another rant for another day.
Tripped across this blog in the past few days. Appears to be a newbie, but might be one to watch in the weeks ahead now that the gas industry wants to build a compressor station overlooking the Wyoming Valley. For us history buffs, the message is loud and clear and a rallying cry that is as pertinent and powerful today as it was over two centuries ago.
Mark my words: uncivil disobedience is just a shot away.

Bradford County Bait & Switch
Unless you live under a bentonite-covered rock, you had to catch wind of the ongoing events near Leroy in Bradford County. What a fracking mess.
The thing that puzzles me is that it appears the DEP is trying to make people believe that mass of moving putty under the Sentinel's feet in this video is natural sediment pushed up to the surface by migrating gas. Now, to this untrained eye, there's a whole helluva lot going on at that site, and IMHO, that crazy dude is extremely lucky that quivering mass didn't give way underneath him. I hope he doesn't do that again. I hope no one does.
Then again, I can think of a few folks from Chesapeake. And the DEP. And - - -
Anyway, the Sentinel and I have a love/hate relationship. I love the guy's balls-to-the-wall approach, and he hates me for being better looking than him and able to let my hair grow any which way I want. Dude, you'll get there sooner v. later. The hair, I mean. You ain't never gonna be better looking than me.
I called him a day or two back to catch-up on what was going on, and found him in a really foul mood. It would not be right to post some of the crap he shared with me, but I think this song ( what else ) kinda captures the essence of the rapid-fire repartee.
Hang in there, Dude. If you decide to walk away, I'll introduce you to my team of tonsorial cougars.

What About NOW!
Several years ago, I attended a DEP public hearing in Williamsport about a frackwater treatment plant being proposed in the area. One of the people speaking out against the plant received a damn-near standing ovation. He's still actively blogging about the Susquehanna River, and this song reminded me of a part of his testimony where he implored everyone to come together and act as one to protect our commonwealth's natural resources.
Seems like nobody listened. Idiots.
My friend, don't let the b*st*rds wear you down.
ROCK ON!
