Last Tuesday, residents of the small town Bobtown, Pennsylvania woke to an explosion and a massive, high-temperature fire, at the site of a fracking well owned by the Chevron corporation.

...

One person was injured and another presumed dead.

...

Five days later, the fire finally went out. Chevron spokesman Kent Robertson told the local ABC affiliate he didn’t know why, but said, “there is not enough fuel being emitted to sustain combustion, and with the cooling of the crane, the ignition source has been removed.”

...

On Sunday, Chevron Appalachia Community Outreach sent a gift certificate to those who lived in the vicinity of the blast offering them a two liter bottle of soda and one large pizza.

The letter, sent Feb.16, 2014 reads:

Dear Neighbor,
