		<description>As we say in West Virginia, &quot;There you go.&quot;  Dirt and damage left in the hinterlands, added value in the established industrial center, not far from poppa.

Reminds me of coal burning electrical plants which are never found where the electricity is consumed, but back in the coal fields.  And I recall that, it takes less energy to move the coal in trains to cities than it does to move the electricity in wires to the cities.

So, the big spenders are willing to pipeline our ethane to Texas, to Louisiana, and to Canada where it can be processed into petrochemicals.  Or, pipeline the natural gas where LNG tankers can take to overseas.  Who is the winner here and who is left holding the bag?  

The corporate giants are getting their pockets filled and the rural residents of WV are getting broken down roads, dangerous truck traffic, polluted streams, toxic fumes, and noises thru the night.</description>
