Dogan:
 
An additional issue and area of conflict is over natural gas drilling,
through a process called hydraulic fracturing or hydro-fracturing,
which threatens the water supply and public health in New York State
and across the US and other locations.
See http://www.waterunderattack.com/home.php
 
Will the current economic crisis put additional pressure on capital
to go ahead with such programs or will it mean that it will be put
on the back-burner? There are some very large corporations, including
Halliburton, which have invested in hydro-fracturing and stand to benefit
by increased drilling.
 
In solidarity, Jerry_______________________________________________
