CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) is far more reasonable to use as a fuel for most vehicles than LNG.

The natural gas is used as fuel for vehicles today, it just is not very common.

You can purchase a compression unit to fuel a CNG vehicle at your home and CNG is available in limited areas.

The liberals don’t WANT to solve the energy crisis. They see it as a means to empty exurbs back into the cities, where we can all live in mass transit nirvana.

... and where the high density makes it much easier to monitor and control our individual behavior.

Isn't that the amount of that gooy water absorbing carp that adulterates all gasoline?

Oh man, so now they've secretly been adding fish to our gasoline? Geez, what's next?

Then again, all of those global warming fables going around being f*rted around (er, being freed) by the democrats (er, socialist-liberals) might prove to be a power supply in themselves....

The day may yet come when people keep warm in the ruins by burning books...

Liberal Democrats in the PA. State Senate just killed an attempt to lease gas drilling on state lands.

If PA is suffering any kind of a budget crisis, it might be a good thing to remind the voters that the State Senate just screwed the people of the Commonwealth out of all the royalty money which would have accrued to the public coffers (by convention, one eighth of production).

...liquid nitrogen (-196 °C), copious amounts of which I’ve used in an earlier line of work and Linde delivered to our lab by the truckload

You can vent the liquid N2 to atmosphere without any real danger, but you can't do that with LNG.

I used to be embarrassed by spelling mistakes, now I know it only leads to comic relief and has become a freeper tradition.

Yes, gas-tight storage would certainly be necessary.
