Just after all the PA municipalities and businesses have converted all their vehicles to run on natural gas.....then the prices will be higher than gasoline. But no one seems to be seeing this.

It is just like the Keystone Pipeline....if we are so concerned about being fuel-independent in this country, why are we so excited about getting the oil to ports? I call bullshit on the whole "fuel independence" argument.
