They're already predicting an emergency situation forming with the projected price of heating oil this winter. A lot of people are going to be left out in the cold.

It wasn't all that long ago when Conservative pundits were laughing at the alarmists when oil prices temporarily fell on the last run up to 100. I wonder if they're laughing now?

Considering I just dropped nearly 1600 dollars on airfare to fly my family to Iowa for Christmas, this isn't going to help the bank account much

Back when the last big run up subsided all the Conservative whack jobs were laughing at the alarmists crying that the sky was falling and that we should be doing something about it.

Well, here we are again...

I'm counting on global warming to keep my bills down. Al Gore's fear campaign can't be wrong can it? Home heating oil prices will be a thing of the past soon. The earth has a fever remember?
