My advice? Become a stockholder. It's very satisfying to be a
stakeholder in a well run business.

I am a large stakeholder in my own corporation, and it's run very
efficiently. But it's not in the oil industry where competitors work
in collusion. I have competitors in what's called a free market.

Any time oil/gas prices go up, it becomes very popular to think that
there is some vast conspiracy behind it. Who's fault is it when
prices go the other way as they sometimes do? There are vast numbers
of middle men involved in the production, distribution, refining and
transportation of oil. If they think prices are going up in the near
future because of a posible shortage, they do the same thing that you
and I would do, and try to buy more right now.

The only collusion
involved is supply and demand.


That last sentence is hilarious, Wayne.

I wonder if this summer if the "talk" will produce between 4 and 5 per

Washington says there was no inflation.
They have all the facts and politicians.

That describes D'Plumes kind of crowd!

Indeed, I've read Welch's The Politician, and also the Bluebook of the
John Birch Society. My mother got them for me as gag gifts while in high
school and after I was graduated. That right-wing lunatic, Koch, is a
prominent Bircher. My mom, a minor Republican functionary in New Haven,
said, "you'll get a laugh out of *this* craziness."

Oh, wait, you probably are referring to a different Welch.

I do? How so? You are a right-wing extremist. So was the Welch to whom I
referred. Seems a reasonable conclusion to me.

She was a functionary. You must be so proud of her. Someday you might
become a functionary.

Damn, Bertie the Bircher. Probably worships Pat Buchannan.
