A couple friends of mine had a total electric home. Then ice storm 1991 shut off the electric, and they really froze inside their own home. Electric water heater, too. After that, they installed a wood stove in the cellar.
NG is often on, when the electric isn't. Which is a good thing. Heating with a gas range isn't recommended, but it's often done, and helps keep a person warm.
Nice link, but it relates to fires from cooking. I guess you could not find anything about the 4,000 gas explosions per year?

I have a really big pot of water on the stove and the burner is on very low which heats the water enough to put humidity in the air to help make the house feel warmer. ^_^

That's not the way it works, Pete. You made the claim, you back it up.

The fact is that you claimed 4000+ explosions, then, when challenged, produced a cite documenting 3200 *fires*.
It's not the same thing.
Your claim of 4000+ explosions is bullshit.

You're lying *again*. The *fact* is that the source you cited does *not* confirm what you said. You claimed 4000+ explosions. Not fires.

Ahh, I see: the facts are not on your side, so you resort to insults.

No, you haven't. Not cites that back up your claim of 4000+ explosions, anyway.

Sadly, no, he isn't. ;-)
Even giving you the rather substantial "rounding error", there is still the thing about five years instead of only one. That in any situation qualifies as pulling a stat out of your ass.
I'm surprised it's stayed on topic this long.
Anyone tried the BK "French fry burger"? I like it plain, ketchup. For a buck, it's a good treat for me between jobs.
Propensity? This thread is scintilating.
And, if those heat pump thingies were cheaper, they would already be in use.
All persons, including adults, need to wear helmets, protective padding, and be in rear facing car seats while going 15 MPH.
Do we mandate smoke detectors?
Oh, I see that Michigan does, as of 2007. Every "building, structure, and residential dwelling" must have them.
Well, I'll get right on installing one in my shed. Not that I could hear it from inside the house.

I think that would also include the doghouse.
Real story. A friend of mine had a knock at his door, it was the police. He lives in a crime section of a city, and the cop was there to tell him that code enforcement required insulation in his dog's doghouse.
Time might have been better spend casing drug dealers, and gun runners.
