While I've not wasted my time watching this particular documentary, I have watched others and their all the same. I would have to ask the guy pouring a glass of iron water. Was his water clear before surface mining started? Was it tested before mining? How close to the mining operation was he? A while back a local resident filed a complant with the state claiming we damaged their drinking water, the state came out took a sample from his home and had it tested, they then compared the results with the samples taken prior to mining and guess what the recent water sample was better quality than the one taken prior to mining. Another interseting note when I was growing up in the early 60's we had the same iron problem in our water, it was so bad you counldn't use it to wash clothes in and there wasn't a surface mine in the whole County at that time. One last thing, Why do enviro's always show coal fired power plants? How gullible do they think we are, they are trying to say that the apparent smoke coming out of the stack is pollutants, when actually it is steam, just plain old steam.

Now I've heard it all.:lmao:

Mining improves water quality! LOL

Good one Old School!
