This article appeared in todays Observer Reporter

http://www.observer-reporter.com/article/20130120/NEWS080101/130129986

Here is the first paragraph of the article:

HARRISBURG – Advances in hydraulic fracturing technology have powered the American natural gas boom. And now hydraulic fracturing could be increasingly powered by the very fuel it has been so successful in coaxing up from the depths.

It is a big step forward in reducing emmisions from the Diesel powered equipment being used now to drill and frack the wells.

When I spoke with her and she said 18 years ago, White attacked her in the press while he was a student at Beth Center writing for the "Young Observer" column in the O-R. At that time she was a school board director. Imagine him being a "savior" for a radical student group he helped form...And all these years have passed and he still has a real problem. Once a problem child always a problem child.....I guess he is still trying to build up his low esteem at the expense of others. I just don't think he will ever change..... I feel sorry for anyone that has daily contact with him.....
