@MarineBob he had nothing to do with it. I just wanted to balance the negative with a positive

I think we're in for a rude awakening this winter. Energy prices have skyrocketed in parts of Europe.

@BizSuitStacy I sure would love to have a wood-burning stove. A wood-burning rocket stove system in the house would be even better….radiant heat and it doesn’t burn as much wood as a regular wood stove.

Yeah mines been doing that for the last few years...i use less and the total bill is always higher than the year before... so what the electric company did here starting last month was they changed the bill so that we cant see what our usage and total was last year.... now we cant complain anymore because we dont know

@Tminus6453 I think I can look online. But I preferred to look at old meter and see how fast it was spinning. Would make me go check to see what I could unplug

@Tminus6453 Oklahoma had the lowest energy rates of any state until this year and now we are number 18 lowest. I smell a rat for the rates to go up that high that quickly. We have a new corporation commissioner, the other one wouldn’t have allowed this.

Electricity bills are increasing all around the world.

@SW-User Haven't noticed any increase in mine. It generally runs between $90 to $120 a month, depending on how hot or how cold it is.

Same here. "Deregulation" usually means higher prices.

Ten bucks is 2 gallons of gas

@Stereoguy I sat outside a few minutes after I got up this morning, it felt like spring with a cool southern breeze and it was 72F. Would be excellent if the weather was like that all day long.
