At my home in Reno, Texas 76020 I felt 40 earthquakes in less than 3 months, although the SMU scientist stated that "at times the data has shown swarms of up to 1,000). SMU (Southern Methodist University just released a study they did in our area stating that the Waste Water Injection Wells and Fracking WERE THE CAUSE OF THESE EARTHQUAKES!!!

There's the study if you're interested in reading it!
Just remember, we live in Texas not California. Our homes are built by a different set of building requirements. Our main building concern in Texas is Wind Zones NEVER EARTHQUAKES....NEVER. That having been said, I can attest to the fact that it only takes two 3.0 earthquakes to damage a brick home, imagine what 40 in under 3 months can do when some are larger than 3.0.
Where to go from here?
Our lands are riddled with sink holes, some as large as three feet in diameter.
Our homes have: cracked sheet rock, cracked morter, cracks in the brick on the outside of our homes, support beams on the insides hanging, chimney's separating from the walls, PERSONALLY...I live in a brick home with acid etched stained concrete floors and my floors look like they belong in a skateboard park! If any of you have seen news coverage of this then chances are you've seen my floor. It's the one that all the reporters bring their own golf balls, put them down in the doorway and the ball rolls from side to side across the room, turns around and comes back to the door. Yes, that's my home. My once dream home that sits at the back of 3.5 acres. You drive over a bridge that covers a small creek. The creek is lined with pecan and cedar trees. Then the property opens up to rolling hills and live oak trees that measure over 18 - 23 feet around and cover most of my house. Well, now it's my nightmare home!
We all have health issues. I personally have documented over 73 people with health issues. I have people that live in 300K+ homes on the lake that have just packed up and left because their kids were having nose bleeds so bad the blood was going through the pillows, mattress and into the box springs. I have a 34 years old female that just had her 6th!!!! YES 6th brain aneurysm coiled!!
The Industry is smart, they put these injection/waste water wells within miles of county lines. See according to the CDC......I have to have X number of people with the SAME symptoms within X amount of miles. Well I have/had 73 people within 14 miles. The only problem is that within that 14 miles there are 3 different counties....Parker, Wise and Tarrant. Welcome to Texas and big Industry. So, as sick as I myself am, I will keep fighting because one day someone will hear me. One day someone will reach out and help us. If not, we are all going to die.
We can't walk away from our homes. And do what? You can't pass a background check to rent with a foreclosure on your record. So unless we have family to take us in or a shelter, we are just homeless or stuck here. These are the options that the Oil and Gas Industry have given us. These are the options our President has given us when he lied in his State of the Union Speech when he CLEARLY SAID that we, the US would drill for Natural Gas here in order to become independent of foreign countries but do so in a way that would NOT BE HARMFUL TO ANY CITIZEN!!!!! Like the man is not aware of what is going on!!!!!
