The heat is on

Who would’ve known? The Bee published some statistics on the cost of heating your home. As you know, this is supposed to be an expensive proposition for most of us this year, with record high prices for natural gas.
                     Efficiency                              Annual Cost
Natural gas      80%                                     $1,524
Propane           79%                                     $2,744
Electricity         98%                                     $2692
Firewood          77%                                     $1,623 *$250 a cord
Wood pellets        83%                                     $1,616

Hmm? Gas wins…but that price is based on gas prices now, not in December.
