The first, ...There are two reasons for the shortage<br />The first, obvious and legitimate one is the vast increase in demand due to the nut-freezing cold.<br />The other, not spoken about is the amount being shipped to Europe to be burned in what used to be coal fired generators because the eco-nazi's have decreed that they are a carbon-neutral fuel and therefore eligible for tax subsidies.<br /><br />Yup, the tax-payers of Europe are paying to freeze you to death.<br />Is this an act of war?Bill Jonesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14474631.post-27666130949149911812014-03-20T21:51:04.864-04:002014-03-20T21:51:04.864-04:00I can't say that I envy you.I can't say that I envy you.

One load made the year easy. <br />Cost was $1200 in todays money ( I used a inflation calculator) but we had to do the cutting and splitting ourselves.<br />Was well worth it.<br />Have not priced what the loggers charge for a load these days.<br />I don't regret going with natural gas awhile back.<br />Now we only make a couple of cords for the camp each year. jon spencerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10886632644249920124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14474631.post-47752789080451098202014-03-20T19:43:56.213-04:002014-03-20T19:43:56.213-04:00Had six, needed eight, easy.

I don't ask what will be required to see you through to spring (as practiced in the lower 47) because it might depress you and me. <br /><br />Using my best guess, I started seedlings in pots sitting on shelves I installed in the upstairs southern windows. The seeds germinated and are coming up nicely. However, they will need to be planted in the dirt within six weeks and I'm beginning to worry that the soil temperature isn't going to be up to snuff in time. <br /><br />Might be the right time to open up a big can of Global Warming.
