VOTE: Should New York state environmental officials extend the 60-day period for commenting on the latest natural gas-drilling regulations?

Today, the Gannett newspapers are running an online poll: “Should New York state environmental officials extend the 60-day period for commenting on the latest natural gas-drilling regulations?”

Please weigh in! We all know these online “polls” are anything but scientific, but it will only take a minute to register your opinion, and it may help with the public relations battle on drilling. You can find the poll at any of these locations:

• Ithaca Journal
• Binghamton Press and Sun-Bulletin
• Elmira Star-Gazette

These papers continue to run news articles and editorials that are asking tough questions and they deserve our recognition for that.
