I am not sure if you wrote what you wrote about the fluids used in fracking while on the hash or not. But what you wrote is counter to so many public records about fracking and the chemicals used.

Sar , please accept my apologies from this morning . I was at Lost in Amsterdam , they have internet hooked to a large screen . When you blasted the O&G business friends said look at that . Lots of our friends are expats and Stat Oil workers .
Marni lets us drink as long as we want . Plus we had some hash , so it was a FUBAR evening and morning.
Sar I apologize for blasting you . No reason.
Mates were teasing me about flowerpot man , who I never tipped ( passed now )
But today will be better
Nope don’t own a home in Caribbean , own a small farm in Texas and a small apartment in Haarlem NL .
Off to Volendam for lunch happy Boxing Day . ( tomorrow )

I tend to take most people at their word on here.

But sometimes the stories get so convoluted they strain credulity...

Christmas time in Holland, the drug capital of the universe...
And you choose to do your master's bidding and argue about how great and "god sent" frackiing is.

Didn't you say you have another home in Florida or the Caribbean?

Yet you chose the European cold? You can't even ski in Holland because it's so flat.

Sar , do you understand what fracking is . The product in Frac fluid Guar . A plant from India . It is used to hold the perforations open so they can Frac with water and sand . This is done way down underground way below any water supply . Believe me 36 year in the O&G business you are being lied to . Most jobs in the PA. Area don’t even use Frac fluid just pump sand. .Its called a slick water job. , destroys pumps but no chemicals.

It is awful what bull comes out on the O&G business . Say they were using some awful chemicals guess what these job are way underground and on top of that the jobs are all cemented. That means you have a steel drill casing then a cement casing . The different way you mix guar with water determines how it sets up . Guar is used in all processed foods . It is in whip creme watch it expand.
Now if a Frac company does an acid job , this is a work over process to an old well to clean casing scale . This acid could be harmful but again you have the cement job to prevent release .
These guys are making money from foolishness . It is on the net Halliburton CEO and his son drank Frac fluid.
What you are hearing is exactly what you say you are fighting against . Saudi lobbyist who want to stop the American O&G business.

There are so many false statements in here it's insane.

Fracking kept the US from going into a depression? SERIOUSLY? That one thing. I think you need to look at what the Fed and congress did. I am not a big fan of Jr., but when he gave the speech about having to bail out, I agreed with him. The credit markets were frozen.

Fracking using sand and water? ARE YOU SERIOUS? It uses quite a few chemicals to break open the shale. Fracking is not a god send to get to the oil. Fracking is going sideways to get to the oil. They could get to the oil before, but the issue may have been the land above it to get to it.

Now, are they good paying jobs? Yes they are. And this is not to be too douchey, but so is a hitman. Just because a job pays a high wage doesn't mean what it does is correct. My wife has been offered a job running an oil companies books. They frack. She is pretty sure that she will say no. But . . . like any other human who works for a w2, when the number gets too high, she will probably convert to yes.

"Halliburton CEO and a few officers drank their frack fluid at a Pa. townhall meeting" - thats the "science" that's your best proof.. Well if you are drinking fracking watter you should stop lol...

Richards, TX

Fracking is a true miracle of our time . We can finally go into the shale formations we couldn’t many years ago. Most people don’t realize that the oilfield and fracking is the only thing that kept the US from going into a depression during the Obama years.
MSM make these people out as villains while people are working good paying jobs .
We were at Boom Chicago Friday night , they were making fun of Joe Biden willing to furlough 70,000 oilfield workers and train for good paying jobs. The comedian explained that Joe Biden’s son will be training laid off oilfield workers how to get board of director jobs with Ukraine and Chinese oil companies . Even the Dutch were laughing !

What is Frack waste water .? There are no real wastes on a convential frack. Most jobs pump two items sand and water. Now the chemical that is used to keep formations open you probably are going to eat tomorrow. Halliburton CEO and a few officers drank their frack fluid at a Pa. townhall meeting. .
Sar I don’t think you are stupid but you are in the media capital of the world , we seen what they did to the Sandman kid . The msm whip you people like scalded dogs.
Fracking is very safe ,they have been doing it for years. Today if A fast talking lawyer can get the media all in ,everyone makes money.
