The conversion ratio is a generalization between the relative value
for producing electricity as some plants are able to use multiple fuel
sources to produce electricity.  They think in terms of dollars per
BTU to make a decision on what they will burn.  Obviously, the high
cost of oil make natural gas a more profitable source for producing
electricity.  This is why Natural gas should have good growth
potential in the near future and also why many leases are being signed
for natural gas production in other states that formerly were being
ignored.  6 to 1 is the general rule as I have heard it.
