Even though I'm not so favorable to shale gas due to its extracting methods, the Saudis do have something to fear.

It just took me a while to realize that "pc" was shorthand for %.

While the frackers and Al Saud are trying to bankrupt each other, the air fills up with CO2. Leave it in the ground.

The air is only filling up with CO2 because we all burn the stuff as fast as they can pull it out of the ground. As long as that's the case, somebody will keep digging.

Work out a viable alternative in the short term and that will stop.

Anyway, that is a different topic altogether.

Latest refill 6.003 gallons (9.2 tank) @ $2.149!

25 cents less than the last fill a week ago!

Below 4 cents a mile, maybe for the first time (in a car) in over 40 years!

Bumping this thread since we've gone above $3/gallon again. Love that sine wave, and how people make their car purchasing decisions based on the assumption that current prices will persist forever.
