Nope on the processing and supply comment. Natural Gas is processed and
piped all over the US...there are large compressor plants in LA but there
are also such in many other states (I know of several in E Texas
alone)....It is not centralized and not a single point for attack...

OTOH, the processing and supply system for NG is remarkably cantralized
(in LA as I recall( and is highly vulnerable to a focused attack from
domestic or foreign terrorists (according to terror risk-assessments).

Also, there are some concerns that the availability and affordability
of NG has been grossly over-represented by some at the national-level
e.g. T. Boone Pickens who have a vested financial interest.

No big thing ... I just have to sort out what I can live with ...  :-)
