Blame for the surge in earthquakes in Oklahoma over the past three years is finally being placed where it belongs , on the oil and gas industry, despite the best efforts of that industry to buy off or chill efforts to expose the dangers of disposing the wastewater byproduct of oil drilling and hydraulic fracturing into the state's porous limestone foundation. From 2010 to 2013, Oklahoma oil production jumped by two-thirds and gas production rose by more than one-sixth, according to federal figures.
