  • chemrat, on 06/29/2008, -0/+2You are correct about natural gas not helping oil/gasoline prices. It won't help wildlife or our great outdoors, either.
  • gbudavid, on 06/29/2008, -0/+1If you use Natural gas to fuel homes in the winter and to fuel Electric Power generators I think that it will help lower oil prices...
