This sounded scary to me, regarding a different threat from fracking.
Did anyone watch Rachel's program yesterday? She is normally rather reliable in her presentations. Yesterday she showed that in ND the frackers leave radioactive filters in different places around the state, including public garbage cans to avoid paying $1000 to dispose of them properly. It seems that the state health department does not do anything about it. Does that mean the same thing can happen in other states? They are drilling so deeply into the earth, that a uranium layer may be involved.
Perhaps we better all get geigercounters.
Does anyone know more about this?

you could use them to help determine if the fracking fluid is getting into the drinking water.
