    I stopped at Coventry RI TSC yesterday (jan 19). Nothing good to report there as they haven't received anything in several weeks. The 12-teen year old at the registered said they don't know when or what is coming in. They had a couple of ton of pellets from Agri-recycle, tried a bag. burned good, decent heat but seemed to burn fast.

    My observations in this area:

    The rationing that was happening in October didn't last long. Any place that normally carries pellets has them in stock by the ton or the bag. Prices are around $10 more per ton than last season.

    If heating oil goes below $2/gal, I'm going to have a hard time not being lazy and running the oil burner.

    Local TSC just got a load of Green Supremes. Folks are plowing through them quickly. Saw the forklift dropping a full ton in the back of an excited onlooker's truck. I wept for him.
