Actually, so few people freeze here because they enough common sense to carry emergency arctic gear. It is much better to have a good sleeping bag and shovel than a gas heater. Sleeping bags don't run out of gas. As for day to day, most people here have big hulking gas hogs that have no problem providing lots of heat. If you drive an ordinary car, like I do, you have trouble seeing it in a parking lot because so many vehicles are SUVs and trucks. The major problem will come when folks are forced to change to low gas milage vehicles. Hybrid vehicles will have no appeal here. That is the problem I am trying to address. Throwing more hydrocarbon energy at a hydrocarbon energy problem is not a solution. Regards, Horace Heffner
