Here's whats funny about all this bullshit, if the supply is tight why are
there not any lines at the gas stations, I remember in 71 or 72 when the
arabs embargoed the US, the stations were closed early and on Sundays.

Instead of going to the moon or mars why doesn't the govermemt build
refinerys on federal land, at least 10 to start. Sure as hell isn't any
crude on Mars or the ing moon!

It's not a supply problem. It's just the fact that the market for crude is
controlled by traders who have the rest of us by the short hairs and know
it.

ACtually, $6.10.4 as of money, with a bbc reported average of
90.2p/litre, and monday evenings exchange rate. Remmeber uk and us

I used the currency converter at http://www.xe.com/ucc/ and the conversion
of 3.7854 L/Gal (US liquid). I went wrong somewhere, because the number with
the rate rate now is $6.18/gallon, which is much closer to your figure than
mine.
