Hi Jim. If I'm reading you correctly, your characterization of hydraulic fracturing is reminiscent of the gaming problem that has the self-appointed skipper of a life boat who must decide which passenger gets tossed overboard and which will be served up for dinner. I don't think we need to resort to those extremes. There is no question in my mind that the quality of everyday life (not only water) of entire fracking regions would be adversely affected if the practice proceeded as usual, based on current art, for the benefit of a relatively few citizens holding mineral rights and the backers of fracking operations and their energy company principals ... not to mention for the benefit of cleanup outfits when the next environmental superfunds are created. Of course, we can take a more positive view of the matter. Just as in Ethernet, where we see low-voltage d.c. power being delivered over the same four-pair communications cable that delivers data (power-over-Ethernet), imagine how economical it would be if the utilities could deliver both water and gas over the same street mains and residential subsidiary builds.
