like tnomud I watch the nymex and cnbc to check when i should buy gas or wait. This week oil has tanked nearly $10 a barrel. You wont see $7 a gallon this summer, and that oil spill in the gulf will only impact us by causing shipping to the hub for oil to slow down.

The economy wont handle it, and if any of you watched, at 2:45 or so yesterday, the stock market tanked 998 points and rebounded to -387 or so. We are not out of the woods, if you let anyone tell you that, tell them to look around.

we haven't been out of the woods since Regan. the status of America will keep going down as long as gov't keeps thinking it can control everything. the more that gov't buts in to business big or small. it will all soon be one big monopoly.

The "reason" gas companies use is the change in the formula from fall/winter to spring/summer time formula. That's half way correct but shouldn't cause them to sky rocket like they do. Most oil companies will raise prices, this also goes for gas processing companies, based on any media info about a oil spill or anything to do with oil being lost/wasted.

I never pay attention to gas prices. Whether I like the price or not, I still need gas! So 20 or 40 on x pump when I need it.

Who cares? It's gas. It's needed. Can't afford it? Sell your car and ride a bicycle. My bike cost more than your Civic though so you may not get a nice one.

The oil companies are jacking the prices up so they can afford to clean up the mess they made in the Gulf without losing their profit margins . ~instigate~
