I am not sure what is going on but the price for regular unleaded at the station nearest to me has plunged by 21 cents per gallon in the last five days, to 2.94. ??

According to a few news sources it's because several refineries have finished maintenance and are now back up to full production.

That, and all the speculators made their Ferrari payments for this month. :D

OK, that makes sense. The trouble is, I'd rather make dollars.

Honestly I just don't worry about it, because it's not like I can't buy gas if I think it's too expensive. :)

Far more annoyed by the food prices that keep going up for no good reason...aside from corporate greed
