Some of the comments are here are just astounding. Right now, folks here in Michigan are paying upwards of four grand to get hooked up to natural gas. The way I see it, that gas hook up is worth at least three grand, maybe more if you're a long distance from the main. How often does someone come along and offer to write you a check for three thousand dollars? Converting to gas will save you thousands of dollars over the next few years, and all you have to do (other than switch your house over) is to agree to help out your neighbor. Unless you really don't like the guy, and are willing to hurt yourself just to spite him, I don't understand why you would say "no".
Guys, this is not a 24 inch pipeline we're talking about! I doubt they'll even bother digging a trench. And although Mike said "right of way", I seriously doubt they are asking for a 100 foot wide deeded easement. If you want gas, you have to have a line run on to your property; that's the way it works!
As for appliance conversions, sometimes it makes sense to buy new, sometimes not. Your furnace should really be converted and adjusted by someone who knows what they're doing. Although the water heater can be converted, if it's over a few years old you might as well replace it. Conversion of a gas dryer is very simple and you can do it yourself. I've never done a range so I can't say, but I don't think it's a big deal. Assuming you have at least 1/2" pipe inside your house, you shouldn't need to replumb the house.
