you should be able to see the actual bills - Oil delivery isn't a monthly thing - more on an as needed basis -
Simon: Captain... why did you come back for us? Mal: You're on my crew. Simon: Yeah, but you don't even like me. Why'd you come back? Mal: You're on my crew. Why we still talking about this?

bonny, that sounds like such corporate bullshit! Were you under contract to them when you developed it? Because that could complicate any intellectual rights issues. Still, makes them seem like stoopid bastards.
Nope. Totally free agent. Unfortunately, I didn't do anything to protect myself is terms of copyrighting the material before I presented it to them. All I have is the hard drive on which the proposal was written and a bunch of email discussion.
Yay for catching up on signs and words! Go Liv with the comm skillz.

I had oil heat for years. Wasn't that much more expensive, but oil is not cheap anymore.
Delivery is easy peasey.

SJ, we have oil heat. One delivery lasts us several months, though the $700+ was a bit of a wince this time around.

That would be fun. Especially if I got to see his face.

I had oil heat in Ontario. No big, except that you do have to shell out more up front, and you want to keep an eye on usage somehow or else it'll run dry on the coldest day of the year.
I don't think it's near enough of a downside to outweigh your positives, but it won't be me doing the moving, so...

It looks like with all of the companies out here will let us do a budget plan over a 10 month period, so hopefully we won't have any huge payments all at once. The real estate person suggested we do regular deliveries instead of as needed, so that we didn't have to worry about running out.

Woe. Pizza place I just discovered has online ordering (allegedly) but not right now.

That's a good idea, sj. It's apparently Not Good to run completely dry, or that's what I was told.
Also, yay (possible new) apartment!
