I don't know anyone who uses oil for home heating here in Alabamastan.
All I've ever seen around here for fuel to heat homes is wood, propane
or natural gas. I've often wondered why oil heat is so prevalent in the
Northern states unless it has to do with older infrastructure and the
availability of NG in those areas.
