It’s flabbergasting that beautiful pictures of beautiful people
and beautiful places can come from moments in time that expose destruction and tragedy.
This protest–one of many now past and certainly coming–commemorates Occupy a Pipeline, this one PVR/Chief’s Dehydrator Station in Beaumont, PA.
PVR–the same corporation who, along with Aqua America, is responsible for the evictions of 32 families from their homes at Riverdale, Jersey Shore, PA.
PVR–one more “midstream” industry among the industries upon which fracking depends. Deprive fracking of its pipelines and you deprive fracking of its reason for being: the money that comes from getting the gas to the global markets. This, I think, should be prominent among our battle cries.
Look at this remarkable sunset. Its backdrop the dehydrator station lined with protesters. I’m crouched down in the grass across Rt. 309 trying to capture the irony, the screaming sadness of this reality. The sky is painted with the color of a setting Autumn day in October. My hands are getting chilly. I am thinking about coffee. I am wondering when the next accident, the next explosion, the next spill will happen–and what the sky will look like then.
These are some key facts which are serious enough
what they should HALT the (un)Constitution(al) Pipeline
and HALT the construction of Williams Central Station.
We need to keep hammering these points in the press
and in our public comments.

Worth a Listen.

This is a great article on the Fracking Denier - in - Chief Aubrey McClendon. (Aubrey ? Wasn't Steve Allen married to Aubrey Meadows ? ) Denial is a way of life for frackers, a business ploy, and something their lawyers and PR flaks tell them to do. The reason why they ...
WOW! Check this... all of your efforts to kill the improperly named "Constitution" Pipeline may be paying off...
This just in from Ann-Marie:
Today's filing by FERC requires Williams / Cabot to study existing interstate gas pipelines. They must provide information within 30 days on un-subscribed capacity, costs to co-locate, and costs ...
Way back nearly a decade ago, when then-VP Dick Cheney was convening secret talks with the Energy industry that culminated in, among other things, the Halliburton loophole that exempts oil and gas exploration activities from our major environmental protection laws, we were all clueless about the evolving high volume horizontal ...
