This might possibly not be a good thing. Officials Puzzled by Okla. Gas Geysers By Associated Press December 11, 2005, 7:47 PM EST KINGFISHER, Okla. -- An outbreak of geysers spewing mud and gas into the air in rural Kingfisher County is puzzling state and local officials. Kingfisher Fire Chief John Crawford says initial reports of the geysers came in Friday morning, and that firefighters and Oklahoma Corporation Commission officials were on the scene yesterday. The geysers have appeared throughout the countryside of rural Kingfisher, with stretches of up to 12 miles between spots, and some as short as a quarter of a mile. Crawford says the threat of the gas igniting is unlikely, but he says there is a concern the gas could begin coming up through water-well lines. He says sheriff's deputies were dispatched to inform residents of the possibility of gas coming through wells and water systems. Copyright 2005 Newsday Inc.
