Well I have a propane furnace and I have been getting propane for 5 years and I can safely tell you that I've never had propane for 63 cents a gallon as stated in the article.

We pay about a $1.35 a gallon. You can actually contract into have that price for the whole winter in the event prices are fluctuating a lot. Also people under certain income levels can get fuel assistance and you end up only paying a portion of your fuel bill.

I don't know maybe propane was 63 since a gallon in the 80s but i have never seen it lower than a dollar 35..edited to add that I live in a state where it gets very cold in winter -30F actual temp is not uncommon.
