    No one ever says anything about propane prices for heating bills. I had to pay $90 in July to hold the price of $189.9 thru June 06.That price tripled from last year. I would like to see a story on propane prices.

    In addition to the usual tips of sealing openings around doors and windows, and adding insulation, adding humidity throught the use of a humidifier, and having forced air furnaces' blower set to run continuously, a program known as continued air circulation, has benefitted me.

    Has anyone looked into why natural gas is skyrocketing? Is there shortages or are they just gouging us like gasoline? Deregulation has done me no favors. I live in Monroeville and when I go to the utility choice web site I have no choice.

    I live in a highrise condo. I believe that air is getting into my living room through the sliding glass door that leads out to the balcony. How can I find out where the leak is and what can I do to stop it short of getting a new door. Thank you.
