Thanks so much to Autumn and Ezra
On February 11, a community forum on gas drilling was held at the town hall in Spencer, NY sponsored by the citizens
energy alliance and shaleshock.org. It featured Dr. Theo Colburn, an expert on the health effects of gas drilling and
hydraulic fracturing, and Jack Ossont of Democracy New York, on actions communities can take to save the places they love from corporate predation by using rights based organizing.

Dr. Colburn's narrated via cell phone while a powerpoint presentation showing what gas drilling has done to her part of Colorado was screened for the attendees at the Town Hall, . What I can't show you on radio is how hideous these
installations are, they look like chemical plants on the outskirts of an industrial wasteland with tanks, pipes, pits and heavy equipment. They want put thousands of these things here - it is the worst kind of terrorism
