Good. Maybe people will stop depending on the shit.

Before you can get off of gasoline, you need to have a cost effective alternative.

What kind of answer is that? You getting ready to take a poop?

Am I supposed to be upset about this? Because I'm not. I think it's high time we start paying the same prices for gas that the rest of the world has to.

We have, but environmentalists turn their noses up on it.

:funny: You Americans complaining about petrol prices. You should try driving in the real world, I pay about £1.10 per litre at the moment, per litre!. There are four litres in a US gallon, so I pay about £4.40 or US$6.70 per gallon. :pawiz:

$1.20 per litre down here... Under $1.20 is a good day.

I remember when petrol at 60c a litre was 'too high'

In 1975 I drove down to San Antonio Texas to retrieve my brother and his clan and help them move back to Indiana. I was pleased to get gas @ $0.25/gallon in Oklahoma until I got into Texas where a gas war was on, $0.17/gallon. I felt cheated. :(
