Anyone participate in this before? I think they did it last year as well at Bolton Valley. I donated several hundred stickers to them as well.

Huh?

FWIW, I fracked my well about a year ago, b/c it wasn't producing enough water... it works wonders now. I didn't even realize there was a concern with it.

What on earth are the two of you on about?

I saw this event a little over a month ago and do want to participate, my family expressed some interest but alas, it is a month or so later and nothing has been done! Procrastination is a sin!

I just responded talking about fracking. Worst thread jack ever. !

Strange how I am the only one that thinks its related to SU2C . :blink: Oh well.

This is certainly the funniest thread I have read in ages...

Strangely enough, I know what hydro-fracking is [though I don't know why I know this], just didn't see the correlation.

Like the PUN at the end catskills [intended or not].
