for the:
“Say YES to Marcellus, Stop the Frackin’ Lies” Rally
… Because Enough Really is ENOUGH!!
They’re Spreading Lies!
On Monday, January 25, 2010 at 10:30 a.m. various extremist groups will converge at the West Side of the New York State Capitol in Albany, to rally AGAINST natural gas exploration. These groups have continued to spread lies and outrageous accusations about the exploration of natural gas in New York’s Marcellus Shale, and now they’re going to Albany to try and convince lawmakers with their tall tales to stop drilling Marcellus before it even starts.
Come Rally for the Truth!!
To ensure state lawmakers, the public and the media know the truth about natural gas exploration and the enormous opportunity for new jobs and clean energy, the Independent Oil and Gas Association (IOGA) of New York, in collaboration with the Landowner Coalitions from across New York, is hosting:
THE “SAY YES TO MARCELLUS, STOP THE FRACKIN’ LIES” RALLY
To help combat the deceptive accusations of the extremists, our Rally will also be held on Monday, January 25, 2010 at 10:30 a.m. in Albany, on the East Side of the New York State Capitol. Our opponents are expecting a crowd; and our numbers need to be DOUBLE! IOGA, the landowners’ coalition and various other groups are joining together by the BUSLOADS to let New Yorkers know the truth about natural gas exploration.
SPREAD THE TRUTH ABOUT NATURAL GAS
Details of the event are as follows:
WHO: Advocates for National Gas Exploration
WHAT: Say YES to Marcellus, Stop the Frackin’ Lies Rally
WHERE: Monday, January 25, 2010
WHEN: 10:00 a.m.
NOTES: There will be buses leaving from various locations across the state. For more information and to “Join the Bus” please respond to this email, longcreekgibson@yahoo.com or call 625-2743 ASAP
Don’t let them overwhelm Albany lawmakers! – Our voices have to be heard!
Facts Vs. Fiction
As you know, while natural gas exploration has been conducted safely in New York for decades, the public and lawmakers have been misinformed repeatedly by these extremist groups -- whose agenda is only to spread rumors and false information against new exploration. It is outrageous, uncalled for, and dangerous to the potential economic opportunities that are so needed, especially for those regions of our State that are economically deprived.
Come Join Us and Let the Truth Be Heard!!

Mineral Rights Forum
We have added this website to our list of Helpful Websites, it is a national forum for oil and gas mineral rights owners (as opposed to several play specific sites we’ve observed). The site is built on a platform that allows users to share photos and videos, create blog posts, and experience a social aspect with other mineral owners. The forum features four different categories for discussion: General Mineral Rights, Natural Gas Shale Plays, Oil and Gas Leasing Help Group, Mineral Rights Tax Issues.
