Q33. Switching gears, the State Department of Environmental Conservation is expected to soon issue a decision on whether or not to allow hydrofracking - that is, the proposed method to recover natural gas from parts of upstate New York to move forward. How much have you heard or read about it - a great deal, some, not very much, or nothing at all?
