A rebuttal to Gasland. Watch it, and make your own conclusions. Although I don't plan on seeing anyone here change their mind if you're against fracing. Stubborn bastards...

I think you need to re-read every page on that site you linked to, but this time take off the press-release blinders and see it for what it really is.
I have no doubt there are people involved in the video who are geniune, however the entire presentation is nothing more than corporate fluff...the kind of shit you'd see at a convention to make everyone feel better about what they do. Most importantly: while I know of no agenda with the Gasland movie, this "rebuttal" has its agenda out in the open for all to see.
Therefore, because it's an obvious commercial for the "Independant Petroleum Association Of America" I cannot take it seriously as an objective source of information.

Ok, I watched the trailer and it looks like a major gas company collected a bunch of slack-jawed faggots with an average weight of 300lbs—who can barely string together a coherent, scripted sentence—to poopoo anyone who opposes America's idiocy.
Thrilling stuff.

it's pretty much a given that any doc with the word 'truth' in the title is a steaming pile of happy horseshit

was giving it the benefit of the doubt until i watched the trailer, where the level of contrived folksiness and graduated 2007 camerawork are blatantly on a symmetrical curve to the amount of manure being spread. you don't even need to hear what they're saying to be reasonably sure that it's bollocks.
@xer0s
that's not to say that gasland wasn't sensationalist (it was) or that there aren't undigested kernels of fact somewhere in this freshly pinched loaf - just that if you're interested in the topic, you'd do better to read up on it than watch a bunch of talking heads who (judging by the trailer) could just as easily be talking about the numerous health benefits of tobacco.

Good synopsis. I'm gunna jump onto this.
xer0s, do you actually think that any sector with $3893267926789 billion dollars under their belt is going to release anything other than something to perpetuate their stranglehold on humanity? These people are corrupt sacks of shit. The fact that this trash is even on the internet sickens me.

So what's your opinion? Do you believe them? Have you seen Gasland and do you believe them? Which movie was more accurate to reality and which movie wasn't?
You started this and heard our opinions...kinda weird you don't offer yours.

Well he's called people who are against fracking stubborn bastards. xer0s are you aware that there are folks who have had their local water table contaminated with gasoline? So much so, that they are able to pour flammable water from their fucking taps in their house? Like, flammable as in you can light it on fire with a lighter. This is water we're talking about. The stuff you drink. Does that not frighten you in the least?
