Gas broiler vs electric broiler?
Im buying a new stove. We have natural gas, but I see there are new stoves that have gas ovens, yet they also have an electric element for broiling. I was always under the impression that real fire was better for cooking.
What are the advantages of having one of these hybrid ovens? The guy at the store told me "professional cooks prefer electric broilers" which of course sounds like a lie just to get me to buy the oven.
Any thoughts?
I LOVE GAS BROILER
New Gas Stove: w/Gas broiler vs. w/Electric broiler?

I have never been able to get a gas broiler to work. The flames shoot upward, and all of the heat dissipates into the oven…my food comes out warm, but not broiled.
Alternately, I’ve had great luck with electric broilers. I grew up with an all electric kitchen, so it’s like breathing for me. But the electric broilers I’ve used have worked consistently, getting the heat directed toward my food, which accomplishes my goal.
That’s my two cents, which is probably worth about half a penny.

Should the Palestinian Territories declare statehood without further delay?
Most UN members would certainly recognize it and they would have full legal control over their territory and airspace as well as the waters off Gaza with their natural gas fields. Think of the advantages. Every zionist in what would then be Palestine would automatically become an illegal alien subject to immediate deportation,and yes,that’s international law,and a fundamental principle of sovereignty. Why wait?
Yes. They should have done it right after their only free election in early 2006. But it’s never too late.
I don’t understand the Pokie’s answer. The West Bank is a part of the Palestinian Territories. I thought that was well known.
I don’t understand Shay’s either. The Palestinian Territories are recognized by the UN and all it’s members,including the U.S. It has never been a part of the (unfortunately) legal entity known as "Israel". When did the PT merge merge with Israel?
News to me.

How fast will the pelosi/reid regime blame Bush for higher gas prices from their news oil company taxes?
Story link for all the Miami/Dade liberals who still cant understand…
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070805/ap_on_go_co/congress_energy
quote 1
Republican opponents said the legislation ignored the need to produce more domestic oil, natural gas and coal. One GOP lawmaker bemoaned "the pure venom … against the oil and gas industry."
Democrats avoided a nasty fight by ignoring — at least for the time being — calls for automakers to make vehicles more fuel-efficient. Cars, sport utility vehicles and small trucks use most of the country’s oil and produce almost one-third of the carbon dioxide emissions linked to global warming.
quote 2
Republicans said the House bill did nothing to increase domestic oil and natural gas production or take further advantage of coal, the country’s most abundant domestic energy resource.
once again this is the liberal agenda of the pelosi/reid regime run amuck. when you leave that much on the table to be thought out later how is this right?
hey ok…your so naive it would scare anyone who has a healthy concept of protecting this nation from out of control liberal extremists.
You did not know they already have Bush is to blame for every thing including how stupid the left is.
Here is a lost bit of Congress info.
they have done most of it already.1963 Communist Goals
The following was entered into the Congressional record by Albert Herlong, Jr. (a Floridian who served in Congress from 1949-69) in 1963.
1) US acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war
2) US willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war
3) Develop the illusion that total disarmament by the US would be a demonstration of "moral strength"
4) Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.
5) Extension of long term loans to Russia and Soviet Satellites
6) Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination
7) Grant recognition of Red China, and admission of Red China to the UN.
Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev’s promise in 1955 to settle the Germany question by free elections under supervision of the UN
9) Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the US has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress
10) Allow all Soviet Satellites individual representation in the UN
11) Promote the UN as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the UN as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo)
12) Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party
13) Do away with loyalty oaths
14) Continue giving Russia access to the US Patent Office
15) Capture one or both of the political parties in the US
16) Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions, by claiming their activities violate civil rights.
17) Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for Socialism, and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers associations. Put the party line in text books.
18) Gain control of all student newspapers
19) Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.
20) Infiltrate the press. Get control of book review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making positions.
21) Gain control of key positions in radio, TV & motion pictures.
22) Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all form of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings", substitute shapeless, awkward, and meaningless forms.
23) Control art critics and directors of art museums. " Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art".
24) Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press.
25) Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography, and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio and TV.
26) Present Homosexuality, degeneracy, and promiscuity as "normal, natural, and healthy".
27) Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a "religious crutch"
28) Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the grounds that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state"
29) Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.
30) Discredit the American founding fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man".
31) Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of "the big picture:" Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.
32) Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture – - education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
33) Eliminate all laws or procedures, which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.
34) Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.
35) Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI
36) Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.
37) Infiltrate and gain control of big business
38) Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand or treat.
39) Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.
40) Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.
41) Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.
42) Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special interest groups should rise up and make a "united force" to solve economic, political, or social problems.
43) Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.
44) Internationalize the Panama Canal.
45) Repeal the Connally Reservation so the US can not prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction over nations and individuals alike.

Gas company offering a deal?
I am the property owner of a house that uses natural gas for heat and for water. The gas company is offering a service of $3.75 a month that if there is a gas line problem on my property they will fix it up to $4000.
I know it’s not much a month but I’ve lived here 5 years and never had an issue (that’s $225). How often do gas line problems occur? Is this a cost efficient service that I should take advantage of?
Pros and cons greatly welcomed!
What a deal! Just another rip off by your public utility. Don’t just tell them no, tell them hell no!!! And make sure that you tell your local and state politicians.
It is like an insurance policy that you seldom, if ever, need. Like the phone company offering you a policy to fix your phone lines in the house if a problem happens. Or buying that extended warrenty on your electronics. Or like buying the bumper to bumper extended warrenty on your new GM truck. These are just tricks to get more money from customers. If you save the money you will have more than enough to fix any problem that may occur.
However, if you are digging in your yard to the depth the gas line and other utilities are buryed, make sure that you call Miss Dig and do not damage the lines. Also, make sure that whatever contractor that may be doing digging on your property has insurance in case he does damage utility lines.
Volkswagen Touran TSI EcoFuel
The engine has specially been developed and optimised for the permanent use of natural gas: modified components, for example, valves, pistons or the engine management system, have been designed for the differing requirements of the natural gas engine. In conjunction with the reduced fuel duty, which has been set until 2018, it offers considerable advantages in regard to running costs compared to petrol engines.

My home central Gas Heater keeps blowing cold air. Any ideas of the problem?
My home central Natural Gas Heater will blow cold air, the temperature will drop in the house, then I turn it off for 15 minutes and turn it back on auto and it is blowing hot air again. It seems to happen mostly at night (once in a 24 hr period). I was hoping someone could give me some insight on possible problems that would cause this and how much it might cost to fix. Also, how to I make sure I don’t get ripped off and taken advantage of with a Heat/AC company?
There is a switch that turns on the heating elements and could be defective, then the fan only works blowing cold air, or it could be a false contact where the elements are connected, I would call for service cause everyday is going to be worse..☺
Gas Dryers
Get to “fluffy” faster with the economy of natural gas.
Natural gas is nature’s cleanest-burning fuel, and a gas dryer is as gentle with the environment as it is with your clothes. Ask your local retailer about natural gas dryers and enjoy cost-effective, energy-efficient drying. The more laundry you do, the more, you’ll appreciate a natural gas dryer. Unlike electric dryers, natural gas dryers provide instant heat. That means your laundry will be done faster and come out fluffy and clean smelling.
Gas Dryer Advantages
High-efficiency natural gas dryers dry your clothes more quickly and for less money than electric models. They also produce less static cling. When a gas dryer turns off, the heat dissipates quickly, reducing the amount of wrinkling. That’s an important feature if you can’t fold the clothes right away. Gas dryers sense when your clothes are dry, which saves energy and reduces the risk of shrinkage. That’s because many models measure the heat and moisture levels throughout the drying cycle. The machine automatically shuts off when the load is done. Some models signal when the clothes are dry and continue to tumble without heat, allowing you more time to fold the load. Gas dryers now offer touch controls, digital displays, and microcomputer-based temperature settings for sensitive fabrics.
Operating Cost
Natural gas is less expensive than electricity. Initial purchase price is an important consideration, but don’t discount the dryer’s operating and servicing costs. A gas dryer lasts a long time, up to 13 years or more. Operating costs, warranty coverage and availability of parts and service at competitive prices are as important to consider as the purchase price.
