    If the quakes were caused by the injection wells they would not have stop as soon as the wells were shut in. The pressure takes time to disapate. Besides that, the quakes come from much deeper than where the water is being injected.What disturbs me is that any scientist in that field should know that.Is it unreasonable to think they could be related to the Madrid faults? LETS JUST OVER REACT SHUT DOWN WSOME MORE JOBS. PLEASE!!!! Get an educated geologist who is not scared to tell the truth.

    Yes, Fracking causes earthquakes! It is a proven fact. Anyone who says otherwise is making money from the oil/gas industry in one way or the other.
