No great advancement has ever been kept at bay because of ideology, nor greed. Eventually progress moves us forward.
You value the thing you are fighting for, but then you learn to value the time it takes to do it and the time you have off. Both of which are precious.

I like doing the action and the romantic comedy stuff,
The fracking chemicals sit in open pits, get trucked around, or sent through pipelines that can burst. What do you think happens when frack chemicals and floods and storm swollen rivers mix?
