OT - Gas to hit 4.00

[Steve]

Hey does anyone know if Questar still offers a subsidy for CNG kits?
Before I left a few years ago, they were offering a credit on your NG 
bill of $1000 paid out over about 4-5 years.
Anyways might be good to check into for anyone interested, last I 
checked CNG kits were $3,000 after install.
