The Rising Influence of Rising Affluence

I agree that those things will happen in the end and sooner if Romney wins, but in the short run I think it's a wash for NG. Again, I wish it were otherwise but if Romney wins, then NG will be competing with coal for electrical power generation and that is the big market. The other markets are years down the line.

BTW, if you haven't seen the GE/CHK CNG pods for service stations yet, check them out. I think those will make a difference to NG utilization in the passenger vehicle market.
