    I had no power for 5 days in the last ice storm. Luckily I still had gas, which mean warm water and showers, as well as the ability to cook on my gas stove.

        That’s all fine and dandy but I don’t have control over what Texas power companies do.

        Getting rid of gas, just because, is dumb imho

          people dont want to get rid of gas stoves “just because”. people want to get rid of gas stoves because they are linked to causing health issues and help to global warming.
