I imagine it would. Supply, demand and all that. Of course there
is a solution to that problem for other countries - start drving
more...


Everytime I see comments about gas prices, I flashback to early
sixties in Montreal when I was a kid. Gas prices were $0.30 a gallon,
bus tickets were 7.1/2 cents and chocolate bars were 10 cents. Too bad we
can't travel
back, buy our gas and then flash forward. Of course it would be
leaded gas, but that would be fine for the Shelby Cobra I'd have
stowed away somewhere.


It's a sign of our advancing years. We've got Lew talking about $0.25 packs
of cigarettes, some of us remembering $0.25 gallons of gasoline, etc. The
problem is that we... remember them...


Look at the bright side; at least we still can.
