Rats. It's a shame this isn't just an April Fool's joke that went off 50 minutes too early. I hate driving with gas as it is. Looks like I'll be purchasing a more gas effective vehicle soon.

Well, I counted up OPEC's production per day for 2000 and came up with 27,700,000 barrels, so that's about right for 4%, so...

Hey they are in the business to make money, and like it was posted before, profit is down.

This is a loose win situation for a lot of companies here in the US. They may have to pay more for transpertation costs, but they will get a tax break and hopefully funding to develop economical / environmentally friendly fuels.

For people like me, who have little extra $ at the end of the month, this is just going to suck.

"Due to fiscle cut backs, the light at the end of the tunnel has been turned off."

Today is a very sad day for me. Not to do with gas prices or anything, it is simply a reminder in a long list of reminders of how horribly my life has gone wrong.

Time to play a game..... I am thinking Tribes or SimCity 4. Well it'll have to be simcity because on 26.6 dial up Tribes won't run. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif God I am so depressed.
