America has benefited from
diverse domestic fuel and energy
sources. On a large scale,
the direct use of natural gas
in homes and businesses is
the best and most dependable
method to efficiently address
heating, cooking and clothes
drying available. America will
be a stronger country with a
better economy if direct natural
gas use is encouraged rather
than hindered by ill-conceived
laws and policies. Natural gas
has benefited this region daily
since its first introduction more
than sixty years ago. Proven reserves
are readily available to
take us beyond this new century.
The continued use and public
demand for this God-given
resource will help insure its
availability for future generations.

The average American consumes
300 extra calories per
day in added sugars, which may
not sound too terrible until
one looks around and sees that
many Americans are suffering
from obesity, diabetes, and
other lifestyle diseases, many
of which sugar is a direct contributor.
Sugar may also have a
negative effect on every aspect
of our lives, leaving us tired,
moody and unable to concentrate
due to the “high” we get
when we eat sugar, then the
“crash” when the sugar starts
wearing off.
We know that candy, sodas
and other obvious culprits
are loaded with sugar. But how
about hidden sugars? Food
manufacturers put sugar in
many items, often to enhance
taste so that consumers will
keep coming back for more of
their product. Foods such as
ketchup, barbecue sauce (candy
coated ribs, anyone?), and virtually
any manufactured food
that is labeled as “fat free” have
