Sorry Jim, the 2nd link should be this one.
Monthly LPG pricing

Thanks Andrew,

That was a good read.

Jim.

Steve, it seems that you do GAF so why respond in such a manner when totally unecessary...Ah Ha...a bit of professional animosity...we don't need to hear about it.

Fred.

Fred allow me to enlighten you on the origin of this animosity. A couple of weeks ago Jim posted a stupid and antagonistic post regarding how crap he thought diesel was and how brilliant lpg was.

Anyway Steve disagreed with him....quite strongly (it was mutual). Jim seems to have lost the antagonism but Steve still seems to bear a grudge. I'm giving Steve a bit of leeway, but it is getting tired.

Barnsey,

Calling my factual post about LPG "stupid and antoganistic" is quite unrealistic. I was just stating some facts for people to consider. Put colourfully to generate debate, yes, but stupid, well in your eyes perhaps.

You too, at the time got very emotional about it. Why, I don't understand, it's not as though I called your mother a slag. I just had an OPINION on differing fuels.

Yeah, I couldn't be bothered with Steve's ongoing bickering and I will no longer enter into debate with you either.

You're both on my list of people to ignore.

Good Bye and Best Wishes,

Jim.

To be honest 99% of the info I give on this forum is experience and free.

I really couldn't give a rats what Jim doe's and there is certainly no animosity I was just having a go.

Others on this forum have a crack at people for no other reason than to do so, yet I have a crack, now I'm the not so nice guy.

Go and have a look at all the useful info I have given on this forum,
Over the last year, then have a look at all the Crap that gets put on here daily, My info far out weighs the bull bleep that others put up.

I'm a see it and say it type of person, Jim wants to flog his dead horse, I think its bull sh1t, If I didn't think other wise I would say so.

I disagreed with the way he spoke to people, and in light of the post above that came through as I type, I would say I am correct.

Jim I am proud to be put on your list.

Barnesy.

For the record to be fair, I was not the only one that disagreed strongly with Jim, I was one of a few.

Cheers Steve.

>>"For the record to be fair, I was not the only one that disagreed strongly with Jim, I was one of a few". Yes Steve I also disagreed strongly with Jim. But I've dropped it and moved on to each post as it comes. I do like reading your good posts on the top end when they come. I'm waiting to see these pics of the 4wds bogged.

>>"Put colourfully to generate debate". Not to generate debate Jim but to start an argument. When the bait was taken you sooked and cried like a little child. Now we're on your list to be ignored? Do you have a list?

Yeah I've moved on now as well, I wont be bothered upsetting Jim any more.

Any way those bog photos are on thread 57053 Watch this space, there are some good ones there.

Cheers Steve.

I'm not real sure of my facts here, but I thought LNG and LPG were very different products. Cars can be run on LNG, which is the type you might fill up on at home, but it is a quite different set up to the LPG conversion we use in Australia.

Out of curiosity, just did some Google searching. I gather that using natural gas in cars, the product is known as CNG for compressed natural gas. I get the impression that this technology is being used in New Zealand. Anyone have more details on this?

Re the 7.30 Report. Anyone remember the the very aggressive reaction from the Howard government when the WA government objected to the selling off of LNG on cheap long term contracts and tried to put a guaranteed percentage of gas aside for Australian use? About two years ago.

Yes Mfewster I do remember that. Thanks Johnny. China gets very cheap gas from us guarunteed long term and we get cheap plasma wide screen tv's from them. I know what I would rather have.

Hiya Barnsey. Yes I am now a member. Ill get round to doing some photos and more profile details at some point.

CNG is being used by a number of bus companies here in Vic.
They take it straight from the gas line and have there own gas compression facilities on site.

CNG is also used on buses in Adelaide. I think some of the issues for private car use involve the size of the tank that has to be installed in the vehicle because as for a given size tank, the range is considerably less than for an LPG tank. It is therefore more suitable for big vehicles .
I still think I have heard that it is being used on private cars in New Zealand. Anyone know anything about this?

Hi Jim
Sad to hear the price is fluctuating in Melbourne. Up in central Victoria LPG for home use is a steady $1.22 per litre delivered. Bet there are less Pollies shivering in Canberra than there are in the country. Perhaps we could get some cheap LPG from China. They seem to have an endless supply at 5cents per litre. Plus delivery of course, forgot that.Not having a go, just having an age old grizzle.

Sssh, be very quiet.

You and I undesrstand it. Keep it a secret. It will keep the cost of LPG low.

Jim.
