I want to get up at dawn, smoke an entire joint, and paddle my kayak around that lake.

Nirv, I just thought, do you ever have all the dogs together? Outside? Do they pack up and start to work as a team?

The picture of Suede is great - He looks so serious!

I was once by the North Judson/Winamac area (an ex had a deer blind out there) - I remember smelling the mint fields!

There's a documentary coming out that talks about the fracing process necessary to get that gas out of the ground in your neck of the woods, Jinx. Apparently it isn't always environmentally friendly, nor a happy thing for those who lease their land to the companies that produce the gas. YMMV, but the movie apparently starts with people lighting their tap water...

As compared to what?

Did you watch it? I don't have HBO.

I take the environmental consequences of this seriously, since we are in the same region. I had the misfortune of hearing an interview with the director on Fresh Air. It was one of the few times I've heard Terry Gross give someone a complete pass. I am however concerned since the gulf incident that deep drillers know less about what they are doing than they pretend to publicly.

I just heard a report about that film on Vermont Public Radio. The fraccing process didn't sound all that great, but what I found most interesting was that when you consider the entire lifecycle of natural gas vs coal they produce the same amount of pollution.

Curious what do you mean Terri Gross gave him a "pass"?

I live not too far from Dimock, PA where they made a lot about lighting tap water on fire. Problem being they've long been able to light the tap water in Dimock and apparently there is a local pond which the locals light once a year. The drillers may or may not have made things worse, but the problem was pre-existing. Terri treated the interview like an entertainment piece, when she had someone with a clear political agenda on the show.
