That would give it alot more weight than the misleading claims coming from drilling firms denying they had anything to do with the fouling of drinking water. <br /><br />Not toxic? Oh, hurrah!

The AP story addresses that, and adds "There was some good news, Jackson said: The Duke researchers haven't found any evidence that chemicals from hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, have contaminated water wells."William M.
