I think you are pulling my leg. The gasoline futures price has not been
above $2.24/gal. Considering that I don't know a single gas station owner
making more than $0.01 on a gallon of regular (they don't make much more on
mid-grade or premium either), where does all the rest go? Some to
transportation, sure, but $0.75/gal.? I don't think so.
Before Katrina hit the "markup" between the futures price and the street
price averaged $0.30/gal. Since then it is $0.70-$0.80/gal. Gee, I wonder
where all the extra profit comes from.

Come on Eric, Exxon-Mobil made 10% profit on billions they risked. I own
stock in E-M, and I'm by no means rich.
