How much demand for oil will there be IF the U.S. consumer slams their wallets in reaction for energy shock? When I start seeing Starbucks hurting because people won't pay $4 for a fancy coffee, or when they stop buying $2000 TV's, I will be more convinced there is a problem than just a bunch of complain that the average cost per mile has risen by 10~20%.

Modern gas heat is the best, any nay sayers are just jealous.It's a LOT cleaner. No soot. We've had both. Gas is definately better.

We would stick with our zone system of radiators. Nothing like it...

If your state and local statutes permit, look into a coal-fired furnace. Retrofitting to control smoke/soot/particulates should cost
well under $1500, the equipment is simpler and will likely be cheaper to start, and the fuel is cheaper by at least one order of magnitude, although you may have to work a bit to find a reliably and conveniently available supply (depends where you live).
Best wishes!

Interesting. The hurricane kind of throws it off, but interesting.
My only concern is that the economy will start to slide before prices drop.
