I want to know that as well MCR, where in the hell did you read all this crap? it had to be off some liberal environmentalist website or msnbc because it damn sure wasn't researched or backed up with any factual information. also MCR is right if you go to school in san marcos it is Texas State University not san marcos university so quit lying stupid or if you must lie at least make them believable. DAMN LIBERALS!!!

where you go? we have no san marcos univerity. what you study to know all this? I go to state skool so I spell better then you. It fracking not fracknig

Fracknig causes this, and the cracks that result may one day suddenly drain the Saint Edward's aquifer. I study this in San Marcos university. The aquifer is fragile and delicate environment.

El Coyote: Highly doubtful that is the case. Geologically, it takes a lot more stress and strain that that. If that were the case, then California would have already fallen into the ocean by now with all the weight of the cities built on the San Andreas. And that "little" fault is MUCH more active than ours are.

Topaz: maybe the weight of the man made dam called Choke Canyon near Tilden is applying some pressure on these natural fault lines. But there again the thousands of holes being dug by the invasion of oil field companies are contributing to the "fault line weakness". Veritas: the "corporate leeches" are called millionaires in Texas.

Veritas, were these near fracking areas? You do know that Texas is riddled with fault lines, only a couple of which are extinct. These are natural occurences.

Yes, but fracking is completely safe. Why are we letting these corporate leeches destroy our world? Way to go pro-business Texas.
