1. Good
people need to drive less, the smog and global warming are killing people. If the US won't sign on to Kyoto (and really Kyoto is just a baby step toward what needs to be done) then maybe high gas prices will reduce pollution by forcing people to drive less and/or buy more fuel efficient cars.

6. We have no Citgo here
:(

The last one closed a few years ago.

I buy at Costco. They are a few cents cheaper than everywhere else.

I haven't been out today to see what the prices are.

7. So
...that would mean that Shrubbie's poll numbers will be falling again.

It seems like the two are in perfect inverse correlation.

8. HUZZAH! Poverty!
oh wait... that's bad.

can someone actually do the math when it'll be more economical and efficient to have my car run on hamster power than gas? i'd like to see that graph, and how close we are to that point.
