Aside from the impetus that bad weather gives short term speculators on natural gas, this weather really is pulling gas out of storage and whatever plans may be in the works for new drilling, it can't get drilled and hooked up for a year or two, and will just get started then. Is there any way, long distance out, to bet on a pipeline from Alaska? That could also gather gas from northern Canada. Maybe the bet would be on the pipeline itself. I have some other ideas about gas from other sources in the mean time. I have been sucked into the Lost Hills speculation in California, for example. it is just too seductive to imagine this huge compressed gas source right in the middle of a market that pays over $50 for gas right now. Have recklessly bought much more BKP (Toronto) than I can really afford, but it is the main operator of those wells.
