    I don't know if you knew this, but they have been drilling in the Permian Play for about eighty years before they invented the type of fracking that is used today. Maybe latter I will share a funny story about how collecting seismic data in West Texas and an unknown fault line caused a farmer's silo to collapse.

    The pic of his 100 fracking sites is about 54 sq miles. Would love to see the Company Man explain to the guys a corporate how he pissed away way over a billion dollars on 100 Fracking Well drill sites for only 54 sq miles of area.

    Does fracking cause earthquakes? | U.S. Geological Survey

    The Fracking Facts
    Hydraulic fracking is not new. When the mining technique began in the 1940s, gas companies drilled vertical wells and pumped pressurized water into rocks to release the gas. Natural gas development really took off in the 1990s when horizontal drilling was developed and combined with fracking; this enabled drills to descend down to 10,000 feet, then curve to drill horizontally thousands more feet so drillers could access gas trapped within shale layers. Horizontal drilling is 3 to 5 times more productive than vertical drilling.

    The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) does not regulate fracking fluids even when they enter our water supply because in 2005, fracking was given an exemption from the Safe Drinking Water Act; called the Halliburton Loophole, it was introduced when Vice President Cheney’s former employer, Halliburton, was moving into fracking.

    Look at a map of all the known fault lines in, and around the Permian Basin, then get back to us.
