Americans cope with energy crisis amid cold and shortages
United Press International reports amid a national energy shortage idling 380000 workers and closing Pennsylvania schools. Kentucky man Rod Dingus uses his three dogs to keep a fuel oil tank from freezing, while Durham North Carolina resident Wilfred Smith endures by blankets and pipe smoke. Duke University volunteers aid about 600 families with wood and fuel oil. Minnesota children jokingly advise hot sauce and lowered body temperatures. Natural gas pipeline officials cite federal rules hindering redirection to the East Coast with Northwest Pipeline signaling possible diversion of up to 135 million cubic feet daily, via LaVaca Pipeline but regulatory hurdles remain.
