Poll question: How high can you go?
Edited on Mon Jul-16-07 10:23 AM by Texas Explorer
I know we've had this excercise before in DU but I would like to reprise it in the interest of getting the very latest anecdotal and statistical information.

So, the question is this: how high can the price of fuel go before it will begin to significantly impact your way of life? Is it already having an effect on your daily life? Are you doing, or planning to do, things to offset your use of fossil fuel? Your anecdotes are truly appreciated.

1. Since I sell more natural gas and oil than I use and as the price I pay at the pump goes up so goes
the price I receive so it's a moot point for me.

2. As the price goes up, we make adjustments at every stage.
I'm riding my bike to the neighborhood store rather than driving -- ever. As the price goes further up, I'll make more adjustments. Fewer trips, etc.
