Man, that’s sure something to be proud of.
Must’ve been an extremely slow news day, Jack. Ya know, I’m still waiting for some media outlet to report on the health impacts case studies I took to DC. Sick people just aren’t sexy like some gas shill talking about college football.

This is off this topic, however, I did not know where to post this:
When I opened my water bill there was a newsletter stating, "Judge Mary Horn has a mandatory burn ban and will ban all outdoor burning in Denton county," effective Dec. 22, 2010. It includes restrictions on gas patio grills and smokers, in terms of lid covers and proximity to vegetation.
My question is, "does this mean the drillers can not Flare their drill sites without being fined?"

I think that is a good question. I do not know the answer but, from my experience, the Big Gas Mafia is not required to follow any rules.
Maybe you could call the county and ask them. They will try hard not to answer you but if you are tenacious enough you will find out. Then you can let us know.

I will call. The newsletter says "For additional information regarding the ban, please contact the Denton County Department of Emergency Services at 940-349-2840.
I think everyone should give them a ring!
