Natural gas may be cheap right now, but pound for pound you can get an order of magnitude more energy from a pound of uranium than a pound of natural gas.

There is a future for both sources of energy.

It’s all about the natgas act and spending our money foolishly.

The problem is that cheap gas will also kill cheap gas.

Gas drilling rigs in operation have declined from something like 1600 several years ago to only 620 today. With record low gas prices, it makes more sense to drill for oil. Fracked wells also have much higher investment costs than regular gas wells and that can’t be justified with $2.3 mmbtu gas

Fracked gas is excellent, but nuclear is another obvious cheap, long-term option.

Typical American short-sightedness, not seeing past next quarter's results.

Facepalm.

These low NatGas prices are coming to an end in under 24 months. There is not enough exploration occuring to maintain this level of production:

THE WOODLANDS, Texas -(Dow Jones)- Anadarko Petroleum Corp. (APC) expects natural gas prices to rebound significantly from their current depressed status after 2014, Chief Executive Jim Hackett said Tuesday.”

Natural gas isn't "cheap" where I am. It's price is volatile and vulnerable to the market hiccupstoo.
Also, gallon per gallon, LPG has 30% less B.T.U.'s than fuel oil. (so basically, you do not save any money using it in lieu of fuel oil or gasoline).
