This is no impartial documentary project, but a fully fledged anti fracking event.   The Tuesday lecture is by Ray Beirsdorfer, and the Wednesday lecture is by Anthony Ingraffia.  http://ecowatch.com/2013/01/02/industry-insider-to-fracking-opponent/ (http://ecowatch.com/2013/01/02/industry-insider-to-fracking-opponent/)

Oh, and if Dr. Dick gave a lecture on fracking that wouldn't be bias? Oh Ricky, are you really this shallow?

Actually, lets say Dr. Beirsdorfer were to speak on the first night and they screened their film, then on the second night Dr. Dick were to speak and Fracknation was filmed, that is what I would all an unbiased event.   I don't mind the anti frackers presenting their case, I do object to it being the only side presented.  The article about the event leads one to believe that it would be an impartial analysis, which it is not.

Yellowcreek Theatre a year ago showed Fracknation.  We asked the producer to invite the Frackpots to show Gasland and LET THE PEOPLE DECIDE. The Frackpots ran away and cowered.
No comparison on the facts disclosed by Fracknation versus Gasland.  I laugh at the part in gasland showing the faucet on fire and then the facts that that trick was always performed by landowners with natural methane in their wells.
