Meaning, was the poll conducted by an outside source with absolutely no ties whatsoever supporting this cause?

Separately, it would be nice to see photos of the mountains AFTER reclamation, not before completion.

WHY? Why destroy the land, instead of mining the sludge, and processing the contents to usable material? I have hope that others will also see what I do as to how it can be done, please watch the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWf9nYbm3ac&list=PLFBB67009040CD371&index=20

This practice is a criminal offense to Mother Nature and should be a criminal offense to any local, state, and Federal government. Anyone with a grain of sense should see this. Let the economics of underground coal mining determine which seams are recovered.
