"Lower winter heating costs
Make some key adjustments to help keep soaring heating costs in check."
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
This was at the top of a page as I tried to get to my email.... I don't know if it is an ad, or some come on to read a feature article. It is such a blatant lie, that I had to share it. Heating costs are not soaring. They are diving. Heat hasn't been this cheap in years. It is hard to believe that someone approves this crap..

3. If You Heat Your House with Gasoline, You're in Good Shape |
|
Otherwise, you're a prisoner of utilities rate-setting practices.

2. I think you misread the message |
|
They aren't saying that heating costs are lower, they're tell you that you can lower your heating costs by making some key adjustments.

4. No link. Did Yahoo! make this mistake, or did an advertiser approve copy months ago? |

5. I don't know, but I still hear ads all the time talking about how to beat the high price of gasoline |
|
I get the impression the ads were made months ago and no one was planning on having to replace them so soon. Someone isn't thinking.
