1. I hope that no one is hurt. Refinery work is dangerous everyday and |
|
probably leads to a shorter life expectancy.
All of that said, I assume gas prices will rise.

5. It had to happen: Gas prices were starting to fall |
|
They needed an excuse, the extra profit will pay for the damage and they can always replace the workers who are now Crispy Critters. (No, I'm not that callous, but they are)
