Keeping your record of being wrong 100% of the time intact. Congrats.

@Secretguy You libtards are the ones who don’t have a lick of sense!

@Trajan61 Go crawl back under your bridge or rock troll.

Why not just vote the people out of office who are responsible for this price hike.

Out of curiosity how does the average homeowner heat in your part of the country? Here, with lots of hydro power most of us heat with electricity. One way to reduce heating and cooling bills is with lots of insulation. I woman I once knew said she had insulation pumped into the outside walls of her house. As this was happening she could actually feel the heat increasing in the house.

Good question. I live in an old house which has been added onto a few times since it was built in the 1950s. So, I have 3 zones, and no central AC on the 2nd floor. I have a heat pump, an old oil furnace, and a small electric mini-split system for my music studio. The heat pump is pretty efficient. My neighbors on either side have installed geothermal heat. I wish I could afford to do this, but probably won't be staying in my house long enough to justify the expense. Most people around here use natural gas, oil, or solar, or a combination. Some also use electric heat pumps. My son has gas heast in his house in NE PA, my brother in NH has radiant floor heating, which is great! I guess it varies widely in the NE. I try not to turn my heat above 64 during the day in the winter, and 61 at night. As a result, I can tolerate lower temperatures. I have plenty of blankets and warm clothes. The houses around here are heavily insulated as well. I had insulation blown ionto my walls, and it made somewhat of a difference.
