The GASLAND A Documentary By Josh Fox

Who is Josh Fox? According to this little picture I found, he's an extremely rugged looking individual with a spark of charm that's surely to raise some eyebrows, especially mine! But I should dig a bit deeper and find out more about the guy, I mean, he's probably more than just a pretty face.

Come to find out, Josh is the founder and Artistic Director of the International WOW Company. WOW is a group of actors, dancers, musicians...just a whole bunch of creative geniuses! These artists get together, allowing their energy to create fantastical docudramas.

I've just received word that Josh's first ever feature documentary, GASLAND, will be premiering in January on the 21st through the 31st. GASLAND is a documentary about the horrors and dirty secrets of gas drilling. Josh painstakingly uncovers the truth in 24 American states. From water catching on fire, animal deaths, toxic waste, gas explosions, illnesses, cover ups and so much more, Josh blows the drill bit off the industry!

This documentary couldn't have come at a better time. There are tons of "environmentalists" pushing the Pickens' Plan, because they don't know any better. I can't wait to be able to see this little gem of a production!

Josh is a sweet little guy with a lot of passion. He spent a couple of nights and days with me last year in FW. Very cool down to Earth guy. Like a brother. That pic of him is a bit more romantic than the Josh I know.

Don, you're so full of good information! I'm thinking the romantic picture is good for publicity and besides what's more interesting than the dreamy activist? Ixna on the otherbray ;)

That would be totally awesome if he was on the Daily Show. I'm looking forward to the showing, will definitely be there.

Actually, Josh is kind of an incidental cutie.
