maybe it's just me but it don't seem like we had as many gas leak related explosions in houses before da gubmint passed all the regulations on safe gas appliances. And before the left decided we should not burn the fuel we have the most of which is natural gas. They believe it's ok to burn nat gas to make electricity to cook with but for us mere peasants to burn natural gas is just not acceptable. "RULES FOR THEE BUT NOT FOR ME" comes to mind.

Liberals are like a "Slinky". Totally useless, but somehow ya can't help but smile when you see one tumble down a flight of stairs!
