I just heard the mayor of New Orleans talking on CNN. He said that the
hurricane is likely to shut down 1/3 of the gasoline and natural gas imports
to the United States this week, and that the shutdown would last for months
to come. This sounds like some serious ****.


They shut down the off shore drilling rigs and the shipping lanes from South
America are blocked or disrupted for a time. I don't know how real it all
is, but you can be sure the price will go up.

Gas today was 2.629 here in CT. Home heating oil is 2.27 to 2.35. I was able
to lock in at 2.35 for the season, up from 1.60 last year.

Bad time to be a Hummer dealer. Or an owner too I guess.

Come to sunny CA, where 3.15 is common for low grade gas now.

Yes , You get $3.15 a Gallon Price but also you don't allow any offshore
drilling for oil and gas and no producing of oil products from you inland
shores. Expect price jumps when you have to buy your oil and gas from other
states.
