Default Increase in propane price

The original question in this thread was about propane prices. Selkirk, NY, the major terminal for New England petroleum products, was shut down in September 2010, after a leak was found in April 2010. It remained shut down through January 2011 and opened after that. That drove up the price. When propane suppliers were paying $1.40 in August 2010, they were paying $2.30 in January 2011. New Englanders were paying for the shortage and/or increased transportation costs to get product to New Hampshire.

Understand???????
