I have to say you are my spirit guide these days. There is a new Battle of Yorktown about to happen here in NY with fracked gas pipelines invading this town on their way to Boston for export. I’m dreaming of adapting
your entire show to cover the revolution against gas and climate chaos. After all, anything is possible.
Another year, another desperate attempt to convince John Oliver to cover the gas infrastructure on his show, Last Week Tonight.
A 42″ pipeline with a pressure of 1000 psi (pounds per square inch) would have a blast radius of 990 feet. That is a big problem. The playground at the Buchanan Verplank Elementary school is just 400 feet from this pipeline. The diesel back up fuel tanks and other vital structures at the Indian Point nuke plant will be just 105 feet from this pipeline.
