>> Used in Texas? Well that explains why there are no federal regs governing fracking. I'm not sure what you think the connection is. It isn't like Texas is the ONLY place it has been used for decades. I was just making the point with that example. You and your ilk are some of the most stupid people on the planet...bar none. Cheney or some corp. stooge tells you arsenic is good for building strong bones and you would suck that crap down and give it to your kids until you were all dead. Why don't you take up smoking if you don't already smoke.... WTF does Cheney have to do with this subject? AFAIK, he hasn't commented on the subject. It seems you're trying to change the subject. Pennsylvania Fracking Fluid Found To Contain Neurologically Harmful Chemicals And SO WHAT? It isn't like people are drinking it. Or did you not read your own article? "although state and industry officials say there is no evidence that the activity is polluting drinking water." Which has been the point all along. I don't give a shit what is in it. The question is whether it will be consumed. Solar panels require the use of at least 50 dangerous chemicals in the manufacturing process, INCLUDING Arsenic and Cadmium. And then there is the very real problem of disposal at end-of-life. We simply do not KNOW how dangerous these things will prove to be. What we DO know is that fracking fluid has no history of ending up being consumed by people. We can't say that about the toxins and carcinogens used in solar equipment.
