One lady in the film had it exactly right. She said, "You think gas is expensive, wait till you pay twice that for water."

I don't get HBO - not worth it for the little television I watch.

Is there another way to see it?

I still have it today. So depressing and hopeless. Is there nothing we can do about it? I just saw Josh Fox on MSNBC. He is pushing for Obama to meet with the families in the film. Would a few thousand letters help to convince the WH?

if everyone who cares about the damage from fracking would write letters encouraging Obama to meet with the families. These are ordinary people who are directly effected by policies beyond their control, and meeting with ordinary people is never a bad move for a president.
