    In case you’re unaware, that’s literally why they took to calling it that.

    Technically correct, easiest to market back when people were first starting to have doubts about setting stuff we found underground on fire.

    Using the word “natural” was very much a deliberate choice.

      The term was useful back when we used coal gas. It stopped being useful 100 years ago.
