It has a pretty significant impact on revenue. When you discuss revenue, production is not the only factor. If you are going to compare production in the Barnett in 2008 to 2011, compare production. Revenue is a combination of many factors, and gas price is a big part of the story. If you don't compare apples to apples, it takes away a lot of your credibility.

This community is in Chatham County, a location that may have abundant [?] sources of natural gas in its oil shale. Oil and gas companies have recently lobbied the NC State legislature to repeal its long-standing prohibition of fracking. On April 15, 2012 I started a SignOn.com petition, "Fracking Is Just Too Dangerous," exposing the danger related to fracking near the Shearon Harris nuclear reactor, located within 15 miles of the ostensible drilling sites. There is very clear scientific evidence that shows seismic activity is clearly caused by hydraulic fracturing, and that such fracking WILL cause earth tremors endangering the integrity of nuclear reactors. My focus on the sheer folly of drilling anywhere near a nuclear site does not in any way diminish the importance of showing the major dangers related to water contamination, wasteful use of scarce water, methane gas leakage, noise pollution, damage to roads and other infrastructure, etc. This insanity just must stop!
