John,

According to what it says the natural gas industry in the U.S. and Canada
may be in for the perfect storm so to speak. Unfortunately for us it
doesn't appear to be a Hollywood creation, but the real deal. Maybe now
we can start doing something about responsible use of nuclear fuel to
generate electricity before we all freeze!
Stay Warm,

[HP3000-L] WAY OT: Electricity production
Dear Library of Knowledge:
Up here on the tundra, we have the option of pre-paying for our next
year's
use of natural gas, which I did last year at what I thought was an
attractive price. And it must have been too attractive, because I just
got
my renewal statement, and for the next year, the price is 53% higher if I
choose to lock in again. So I called the gas company and was told that
the primary cause of the steep increase is that natural gas is now being
used to produce electricity, especially in California, putting pressure on
demand. Anybody care to comment on this? Am I being fed a bunch of bull?
TIA,
John Lee
