If you look at all the holes in the fossil fuel arguments, they look like Swiss Cheese--and smell like they are cutting cheese: Cold weather created a perfect storm here last winter, with demand for natural gas peaking just as supplies ran low, sending prices soaring as New Englanders attempted to keep their homes warm in the unforgiving climate. At its height, residents were paying nearly nearly 10 times the typical rate for natural-gas heating. The problem was never solved: It simply faded as demand ebbed with warming weather. Now, with temperatures again dropping and sunlight growing scarce, theres no quick fix to be found—and 2012 appears to be only a preview of the pain to come.
