Its one of those things that gets me, 'cheaper' makes it sound like things are working properly, and they're NOT!

Still around four bucks a gallon in NY.

Labor Day relief is coming soon. Glad I bought a hybrid a year and a half ago, I can get well over five hundred miles off a tank, and I haven't ever paid sixty bucks for a fill up, ever with this car.

That less refineries were closed down for maintenance and production is higher than normal, hence the lower prices.

that all the drilling around here would bring prices down!

So much for that.

As for that judge that overturned the fracking ban -- wouldn't you just love to see what's in his investment portfolio?
