There are many ways to tell a story, and Jane Johnston, editor of the Newburgh Advocate — and a part-time reporter for GIMBY — brings people’s concerns about new shale deposit gas drilling in the Hudson Valley to life with this remarkable series of on-site sketches and quotes.  Faces emerge from the crowd.  Phrases like "water is the real staff of life" and "an aquifer cannot be restored" and "we need to get this right in New York State" join sober assessments such as "the DEC (New York State Department of Environmental Conservation) doesn’t have enough staff."  View Jane’s insightful reporting here. -NH
