It's a gas - conventional gas, page-2

I like this bit:

"As an aside there are just 30 families – 150 people – in the Bentley area where the well is situated but, at its peak, the demonstrations against the project involved 1,000 protestors or more (there have been media claims of 2,000).
Numbers of them travelled from interstate to participate.
This is not a local pushback against a development but an organized campaign by radical activists who have spooked a government (and especially its National members) to an astounding degree – and sucked in much of the media to an equal level.
Allowing the affair to reach today’s pass has put the Coalition in the position of being challenged to say (with respect to gas policy) who governs New South Wales and how it has allowed an anarchic movement to drive State-wide community interests closer to being in a ditch....."
