I'm a little bummed that I locked in a relatively high price for propane, but who knows what all might happen this winter to affect supplies - I'm not going to worry about it.

Don't worry, the second a snowflake hits the ground in Alaska, they'll claim it means the worst winter we've ever seen and prices will shoot through the roof. So your locked in price will probably still be ok.

Gosh! I thought Global Warming had canceled Christmas. Heck, Al Gore told us that Santa's sleigh was obsolete, and this Christmas, he'd chucking all our toys out of a Chinook or a Black Hawk.

El Nino!!
I must say, we installed a new HE condenser unit, refrigerator and washer and dryer. I gotta tell you, I save over $450.00 per month and the bills just keep decreasing! My water bills keep coming in with the minimal readings. It might be the most economical decision I ever made.

No, global warming means global cooling now, I think. Al Gore has decided it's caused by smokers.

just ordered a trane 90+ efficiency forced air unit here - I'll let you know how it works out - our present furnace dates to 91 and is about 70% efficient - hoping to save a few bucks

A reduction of the price rise is seen as a cut?

Too bad this little chart you found doesn't show today's prices, which are in the $6 range and have gone as low as about $4.50 just within the last month.
To: Trust but Verify
you refer to the 'spot' price, or perhaps
current or one-month-out futures
nothing to do with residential price

RE: "Although this winter is expected to be about 2.1 percent warmer than usual"
A highly suspect prediction, based on the same flawed global climate models that depict exagerated "global warming" over the next 10 plus years.

I was hesitant at first, you know "if it ain't broke don't fix it" then fuel went over $75.00 per barrel and my power and water went through the roof. You will be very pleased at your rewards for purchasing EI appliances.
No, I'm not a salesman...

Although this winter is expected to be about 2.1 percent warmer than usual, the government said it will still be 5.9 percent colder than last year, which was one of the warmest winters on record.This is 100% gub'mint BS. What's it gonna do Saturday on my wedding anniversary?

Well, then somebody's not on the ball. I mean, do they want to make cash or don't they? The market's not going to manipulate itself.
