• I mean sometimes you want to just zone out and play something dumb. You don’t get any gamer credibility but nothing wrong with having fun.

• Just last month I was trying to question a board of supervisors member on this very thing. I used to like the guy but he gave a long-winded pretty story about how the water will be cleaned and filtered to the highest standards. Yes that could be done, but he couldn’t tell me exactly in the county was going to ensure it WAS done.

  Same deal with fracking. The proponents can make the procedures sound good but without unbiased monitoring that they actually do what they promise it doesn’t mean jack squat after the groundwater is already polluted.
