Harry,

Your setup on gas sounds like a good idea.

I assume you are using CNG (liquid??)? This must require a pretty expensive
tank in order to hold the pressure required to maintain NG in a liquid
state. As I understand, the tank is underground except for a portion on top
required to service the tank. Does it require an electrical hook up for an
impressed current system to inhibit electrolitic wasting? Seems to me that
sacrificial anodes would be difficult to service.

As you can tell, I'm interested in the solutions to the technical challenges
of such a system. Frankly I wouldn't mind a similar system for our home if
it is not out of our reach.

Thanks,
Butch

No ****. Mine for Oct/Nov was $800. Ok, so I don't have insulated

I need, and for less than $80. a month. PSE can kiss my ass. Twice.

Got the gas bill for December for the house...

More than twice as much as the corresponding month of 2003.

Incredible.





Fortunately, we're not using gas to heat the house. Instead, we get gouged
by the electric company. But we do use gas for the range, for hot water,
and to run one of our fireplaces.

I'm so glad we have such effective national energy policies and plans.
