No. It's more elastic in the long run than the short run.

this was just covered in econ 201 today...people have less time to adapt and find substitute goods in the short-run, but as time passes they are able to find substitutes, making it more elastic.
is the long run elasticity of demand is ever smaller than the short run elasticity of demand.
Natural gas is inelastic in the short term because the amount of natural gas available does not tend to increase with demand. In the long run prices can become more elastic due to the ability to adjust your overall consumption of natural gas to match the supply.

Most of them are more elastic in the long run,because all factors of production are variable,not fixed.

Generally, product demand is more elastic the longer the time period under consideration. Consumers often need time to adjust to changes in prices. (McConnell & Brue p.346) "Short run" demand (like buying items at an auction) is more inelastic than is "long run" demand ( like shopping at your favorite department stores) where you can have "time to think about it". Price elasticity of demand is greater...(d) the longer the time period involved (348). Economics: principles, problems, and policies / Campbell R. McConnell, Stanley L. Brue.-17th ed. don't tell, RES
