A lot of people are banning it.

TBH, if my tapwater started igniting, I'd feel the same way.

That was quite convincing evidence of contamination to the drinking water supply, or at least the drainage systems. Mine certainly doesn't go up like that.

I saw that on Newsnight; if that happened to me I'd be in my AM's, MP's and MEPs' respective offices faster than you can say frak.

At least here the government have not exempted the fracking industry from pollution lawsuits like Bush Jr did via executive order in the last few days of his presidency. Hopefully our our government will stop the industry before our water supplies are tainted and entire swathes have to buy bottled water instead.
