Don't sweat it VSC. For one thing the Huffington post is a notch below the National Enquirer when it comes to journalism. They’re nothing but a bunch of east coast intellectual hacks, who think their Ivy league education somehow endears them to being smarter, than you and I. The one thing Harvard can’t teach them is common sense.

what part of "We who benefit must be careful not just to become haynesville shale lemings" led you to conclude that anyone was called a leming or "not smart enough to make informed decisions . . .?" Don't re-write what I wrote to suit your agenda.

You are inferring that the people of NW LA are not smart enough to make informed decisions and protect themselves. That they may fall into being 'lemings', I am offended by the inference.<br />
As I was in the Huffington article about the blanket 'redneck' remark. It is physically impossible for me to have redneck, I live and was born and raised in a different area of the country, I found that remark in the other article offensive also.<br />

Interesting analysis.<br />
I personally see them both as different movies.<br />
So I find the basic premise of comparing apples to oranges wrong.<br />
Haynesville , to me, I saw as a people piece, the story of the drama, the lease, the lifestyle. It was not to be an environmental piece, thus a few words are given to that topic, but not a majority of the film.<br />
The other movie is focused on the environmental issues and dangers.<br />

Haynesville , to me, I saw as a people piece, the story of the drama, the lease, the lifestyle. It was not to be an environmental piece, thus a few words are given to that topic, but not a majority of the film.<br />
The other movie is focused on the environmental issues and dangers.<br />
There is nothing wrong with either, I just don't like trying to slam one for the other since the audience is different.<br />
As for being a leming: I am not a leming. I have researched online, offline, hired attys, watched more than one documentary and am aware of many dangers. The negatives from wyoming, colorado and texas. E&P runs roughshod over folks when they don't educate themselves, or even concsult somone other than the one approaching them for their signature. Let's face it though, those that may be lemings will probably not view either movie.<br />
I admit it, I am a LO, and I want my land drilled. Safely, without accident, with minimal disruption and damage to my land, but ultimately I want it drilled.<br />
I am realistic enough to know that just by that, there is risk.<br />

The reviewer panned the film<br />
bc it comes across as a PR campaign for HS gas E&P and did not critically look even at it's own subject ( landowners do well and E&P makes a fortune).<br />
<br />
And, he uses the film to point out the obvious--drilling and fraccing are not 100% safe and clean<br />
<br />
but the writer also uses the SXSW audience response in an interesting fashion--great audience reaction shows the hunger of the people for an alternative to oil.<br />

<br />
but the writer also uses the SXSW audience response in an interesting fashion--great audience reaction shows the hunger of the people for an alternative to oil.<br />
<br />
In short, the writer used the film as a stepping off point to caution against the notion of a panacea because the film does offer HS precisely as such. While that is obvious to some, the average person who has never had any contact with E&P wouldn't know of the underlying negatives, whether the sheer quantum of water used, the issue of disposal, and the fact frac fluids are "secret formulas" of highly toxic<br />
chemicals that can kill and as we all know DO kill.<br />
<br />
The film gets national attention by the review. And rightfully, the imperfections of HS E&P production, which were wholly omitted from the film, are brought out to the open by the review. Pretty clever approach to a serious subject. We who benefit must be careful not just to become haynesville shale lemings.
