We understand it just fine, which is why we oppose it.

I took a job in a women's field that turned into a man's field that they then discovered women were too stupid to work in,.Pfft,. My ex - who I took out of a poor paying job and trained to get a better paying job and did half his work for the first 6 months, would try and pass off a woman are not smart enough comment in front of me toward the end of our 30 some years together. He hung out with guy s that earned more than their wives and had better jobs than their wives and thought he could pull it off as well when he was decades behind me in business. after we divorced he became a republican as well. Jerk. I think some people are so insecure that they have to believe they have something over someone else, for some guys in the sciences, it is women are not as smart.
Yes, I too oppose fracking, not only do I understand the process, I understand the repercussions, benefits and disadvantages.

Words escape me.

But isn't "fracking" what Hillary did to the Benghazi committee? LOL

"Frequently the women haven't had very much in the way of a science education because they may well have dropped science at 16. That is just a fact," Macdonald told The Times.

"Women do tend not to have continued with science. Not only do [they] show more of a concern about fracking, they also know that they don't know and they don't understand. They are concerned because they don't want to be taking [something] on trust. And that's actually entirely reasonable."

Mind Bogglingly stupid shit here.

women understand it. Women and men, also understand you sold your soul to the oil company store. What will you say next to make a buck?

I have understood fracking since it was called acidizing back in the first half of the last century.

... because they are being paid to have a specific opinion about it.

Ya think?

Gee, industrial concerns have been lying to the public for decades about the adverse effects of their corporate practices. Who are you going to believe, a bunch of people with cancer or the slick advertisements from R.J. Reynolds? You don't like DDT in the environment? Oh, I suppose you'd rather have spotty apples than a healthy ecosystem.

Who are you going to trust, a bunch of egghead seismologists and geologists and their alarmist charts of earthquakes, or the benevolent and very female chairwoman of a shale gas lobby group?
