Natural Gas Prices
Six years ago I would lie awake at night and listen to the furnace run. Now it lulls me to sleep. When we started the remodel back in 1999 we wanted gas everything: range, dryer, hot water, heat, everything. I had read "The Origin of Petroleum" by David Osborne in the February 1986 issue of The Atlantic amd I was convinced that gas was cheap and plentiful and likely to stay that way. What I didn't count on was another war in the Middle East and the dead weight of the EPA. Finally, though, gas is cheap again. If only we had pipelines to carry it.
