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

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.


Gasoline is cheaper today - in inflation-adjusted dollars - than it has been
at any time since 1918 (except for a brief spike in the Carter
administration).
