I know the answer!

Atima, work on a Gas Pump hack so even though the pump says $3.59 per gallon, it will only charge .99 cents a gallon. wink.gif

well i for one will be looking at either a wood stove or pellet stove (most likly a pellet stove) after i get off work today, heating oil is 81.9 cents a liter here now, so it will cost me at least $900 to $1000 dollars a MONTH this winter to heat my house, last year oil was 56.9 to 59.9 and the most it cost me was $580 a month.

i have to do something, but i know one thing and that is my kids will not freeze this winter,if by chance i dont get a stove for the winter then the oil company can wait for there money. when they call asking for it i will just tell them "when i get the money they will get it"

go with something that can burn wood as well (dont now much about the diffrence between the 2) but if there is a disaster or some reason you cannot get to or buy pellets... you can always use wood from furnatureor part of houses that are no longer able to be used for housing.

I have a gas fireplace...have to see if I can convert it into a natural fireplace...(not sure, heard something about "fire bricks" for naturals...not for gas..)

the reason they're not looking into alternative energy sources is because the tycoons are going to suck every last penny that they can out of oil before going on to a different energy source. simple as that. they are only worried about THEMSELVES and THEIR fuckin money... which is fuckin gay.

Nova, a canadian gallon must be different than a U.S. gallon. It's only 3.76L per gallon here.

The sad thing about all this is that when you burn any sort of pertroleum fuel to make your car go, you only extract 30% of the energy of the gas. Yes, you heard right. As a fuel, it's only about 30% efficient. The rest of the energy is all given off as heat. Thermodynamically, that's about the best you can get with petroleum. From a scientific perspective, using that as a fuel source is, well, stupid to say the least, but the reaon it hasn't been changed is a combination of the oil tycoons' greediness and just general lazyness in the sense that no one really wants to exert all the effort to actually implement a new energy source for vehicles....

yes i was mistaken it takes 3.85 canadain liters (not 4..55 as i stated) to make 1 us gallon.

but in canada it takes 4.55 canadian liters to make 1 candian gallon

drovee to the gas station and they were upping the price (gas station is at the corner of my block. to 3.55 a gal. drove to the supermarket to get gas there (cheaper) 3.55 a gal and they were (while i was pumping) upping to 3.70 a gal. went inside (for 30 min buying dinner) drove back by the corner gas station 3.99 a gal. it will by estimate be 7.50+ sunday and according to the gas stations there isnt enough gas comming to supply the ESB. we will be out of gas by the mid week and wont have any till a week or 2.

I really cant afford this... I can bet money that with the stop of petro trucks acant make del. no food. no police+fire. (long term worst case) IM GOING TO THE GUN STORE AND UP'N THE AMMO....

agree

nice that NYC has been changing taxi's to hybrids. intresting... should save on fuel uses and such.
Frosty
Looks like things have actually gotten better. Prices here went down from 3.60 to 2.99, and we haven't had any stations run out of fuel. Don't be too skeptical now....
Undertow
Same hear, I actually saw $2.89 a gallon. Right after i paid $2.99 of course.
Silver

Ice_Cold
gas is starting to drop below 3 bucks now. the cheapest right now is 2.89
nova
$1.34 a liter here still if it stays at this rate it will cost me $67 dollars to fill my snowmobile sad.gif that sucks
xl-FLAME-lx
$3.19 Today just raised 10 cents...I work an hour and get 2 bucks profit, IF THAT CUZ I HAVE TO DRIVE TO WORK>>WHAT THE FUCK AM I WORKING FOR AGAIN?!?!?!
Frosty
Don't worry. You're working to keep the American economy functioning and to make Arab oil princes rich.
