   No, stoopid . . .  fracking is used to extract oil and gas from more   
   than "ROCK".  It's used to extract gas and oil from all types of   
   sub-surface materials.   
      
   The 'tailings ponds' are the result of that fracking.  And they're ALL   
   OVER the tarsands.  Get educated - or be gone.
