15) Live, 24/7 air monitoring webcast.
16) Any violation results in work stoppage until corrected, which includes all leaks, spills, emissions and until the $100,000 check per incident clears.
17) You gasholes claim through non-stop tv and newspaper advertising you use the latest technology, so there are no leaks or emissions. Put your money where your mouth is, and prove that this so-called ‘technology’ is actually being employed prior to drilling.

hyper what? Did you buy a new place next to the stadium Timmy?
Can you get me tickets to the Cowboys too? I think TxSharon should be on stand-by 24 hours a day with a wet toe-sack!

Nope, I moved further away from you. If you had been keeping up, you’d have known that.
