Most Coloradoans I talk to absolutely don't want further contamination of air and groundwater nor despoiling of our hunting grounds by yet more drilling. In my view as a hunter, I've seen too much of it already. This state has been notoriously lax in its standards for extraction, and I welcome better scrutiny and maybe someday, even, better enforcement of existing laws. I find it especially odd since you live in Weld County, where gas well emissions are considered the biggest problem with air quality (even compared to your wonderful (ahem) other aromas). As a fellow Republican I can understand that you want to to go after the Democrat Ritter in any way you can. But we'll part ways when it comes to advocating more drilling and mining in this state.
