> Why is there such interest in drilling all of a sudden? The shale has been there forever and the gas companies have known about it for quite a while? The answer: The price of gas went up to the point where it became economically feasable to drill.

> Leave it to Rendell and the Democrats in Harrisburg thet you people elected into office…they are now proposing a GAS EXTRACTION TAX on Marcellus Shale drilling. This will probably make drilling economically un-feasable once again and all the gas companies will just pack up and go away.
