With an average of 20 post a page and 20 pages of post about natural gas it seems like we would get together and make a difference.

Let me get this straight...

This is a post to #OOPS# about bitching posts. How is this accomplishing anything more than all the other threads, which are at least more specific? Lead the charge or get off the high horse. IMO, of course. Complaining about all the "can't someone else do it?" with a "can't someone else do it?" attitude drives me nuts, and it's on display here.

Also, your assumption appears to be that people aren't doing anything because they choose to post about the issue on this site. Am I the only one that thinks that's ridiculous?

I agree that it's an item that needs action, but you're making some wild assumptions for the sake of criticizing everyone, and that strikes me as incredibly counterproductive.

Does show our #s mean numbers, or pounds? I mean, I'll do whatever it takes.

lots of us do things. we write e-mails to the government, we attend talks and lectures, we belong to and contribute to various conservation organizations. we police the woods and waters we love and report violations to those that are supposed to enforce.
we are making a difference, they are starting to listen, what have you done?

melvin,

I not sure what you are looking to do. Are proposing starting a conservation organization to oppose or help police the natural gas companies?

Think about joining one of the existing conservation organizations like TU, or just click on the top of the page for http://www.pacamocoalition.org/ and support these organizations with money and/or volunteer some time. I agree there should be a lot more of us doing so. Good luck.

Well i know that im stepping in way over my head,But how about a simple letter Hand written to Lisa Jackson administrator of the EPA.Telling her that as citizens of the Common Wealth of Pennsylvania we do not feel that the state and local goverments can handel the enviromental impack stressed on it by the natural gas industry and imeadate Help is needed. I know that it might not matter but the sqeaky wheel does get the grease.

Even our county commissioners are trying...

and the state... I'm surprised that Krancer let the DEP do this to Chessie Energy.

Every journey starts with a single step!

Keep trying! It wasn't the sentiment that drew challenge, it was just the ambiguity in which it was presented. I don't think your intent was obvious at first read. If people didn't share your same sentiment, there would be all these posts!
