Default $3.249 Gal. For #2 Home Heating Oil

$3.25 gal. is higher than a gal. of premium gasoline ($3.17) today.

In 4/07, #2 oil was $2.55.

In 12/06, it was $2.44.

People will be dialing back this winter, and not because Green Al Gore
toed them to.


When I was in Italy earlier this year paid 1.10 Euro per liter for heating
oil where I stayed. I paid 1.28 E per liter for gas, so with the exchange
rate it worked out to $6.40 a gallon. A week ago in Amsterdam it was 1.70
and the Euro is now in the 1.49 range so it is closer to $10 a gallon.
