Arragonis, going off topic for a second.

...almost 8 dollars for a US gallon of diesel, Ouch... I grumble when I see diesel at $3.20 on my commuting route. Is the difference tax? Where does the money go?

Money currently saved is running at £20 per tank. Each tank costs me about £62 and I used to get about 430 miles. Now I get about 600 before the panic beeper kicks in. I've also gone from roughly 2 tanks a month to about 2.5 every 2 months.
