NO DRILLING BESIDE JOE POOL LAKE!

I am beginning my day reflecting on the vote tomorrow by the Dallas City Planning Commission on approving or BLOCKING a drilling rig beside Joe Pool Lake.
As my readers know, I have made a two year study of Mountain Creek Lake (very close by Joe Pool); and I realize if southern Dallas desires a recreational lake of reasonable cleanliness-Joe Pool is it.
We CANNOT afford to pollute and ruin the one lake that is atop the Cedar Mountain watershed-draining down on the Mountain Creek/Oak Cliff area.
Friends, I don't think any of us fully knows the damage pollution of Mountain Creek Lake has done to Oak Cliff-underground - affecting creeks and underground springs which ultimately drain into the Trinity River.
Dallas is in a river bed, in an alluvial region, and all our water is interconnected.
Drilling near our few remaining reservoirs is extremely unwise.
Further, the chemicals coming from the higher regions of Cedar Hill will rain down pollution on the rest of us below.
XTO presents a scenario which they believe they can control.
I say you can't outsmart Mother Nature; and things like height, depth, gravity, wind, etc. will win in the end.
We are but fallible humans on this planet, and we need to work with the forces and processes God has put in place-not against them with our radioactive tracers, salt water, fracking cocktail, ponds, pipes, and trucks filled with waste water.
If drilling must be done-get out of the city!!!
Please read Raymond Crawford's DALLAS DRILLING BLOG - dallasdrilling.wordpress.com. Jenny Land, has one, also. See DALLAS CITIZENS FOR A TEMPORARY MORATORIUM ON GAS DRILLING on Facebook.
These are both top flight; and will tell you how to attend tomorrow's important meeting or sign a petition asking city leaders to stop, learn, and evaluate what is best for Dallas-rather than give XTO the "go ahead" tomorrow!
Remember, no good decision needs to be rushed and made under PRESSURE.
A sound decision can wait until all the facts are in!
