Even local racin g is hard to do around here now (Nova Scotia Canada) I live about an hour from the second largest refinerey around, and 3 hours from the largest. Gas is 1.192/liter, which is 4.498 per US gallon for the low grade crap. I work in a garage/gas station, we make between 1-4 cents per liter, government gets 37%, and the remainder the oil company.

As someone on this boards signature says, despite the high cost of living, it remains popular!

I gues we are lucky.. $ 2.79 a gallon

Check that price again in the morning Bobby, it went up 15 cents here today in Sulphur Springs Tx. from $2.74 to $2.89.

Jim Cimarolli

up to 3.55 a gallon in the seattle area, up 40 some cents in the last month, second highest in the nation, three refinerys here and all our oil comes from alaska? go figure all that out? Fuel is and has been a comodity in this country for a along time and now it needs to be controlled by the government before exxon announces more record profits!

I am going to "enjoy" the current gas prices, as I firmly believe we will look back in a short time frame and yearn for the good 'ol days of $3.50/gallon gas.

I watched a round table discussion between T. Boone Pickens (oil baron) and Steve Forbes (Forbes magazine/ex-Pres hopeful) and they are convinced that gas is headed soon for $4-$5 /gal; it is a commodity that is being "bid up" by emerging world economies. Their "solution" to topping out at $5 is a rapid growth in nuclear plants to supply energy and ease gas/coal demands...they contend that American's need pain in the gas tank, rolling blackouts before the mood of the people will allow for construction of nuclear plants; if this doesn't happen in their professional opinion is that gas will go beyond $5/gal

I didn't catch it clearly, but I guess Japan has a test nuclear plant that re -processes the waste on site. France (of all places) is 80+% nuclear as they have no oil/gas/coal resources.

Just some thoughts
