How did that saying go? Something like, "You're getting screwed by an
elephant, it's supposed to hurt."

:On CNBC at 1:10PM today, oil-60.83 and unl-1.744. We'll be traveling the
:first week in April and I expect $2.50/gallon.

I'd welcome $2.50/gallon...it's about $2.75 now in No. California.

We need more nuke generating plants. That's like the elephant in the
room, and until we get out asses in gear building them we'll just
be spinning our wheels.
Right now that's the only clearly achievable target to get transport
running electric and lessen the pressure on petro in the near term.
But you hardly see anybody talking nukes.
Because there's absolutely no national leadership.
Pansies.
We need some Frenchies here to show our leaders how to grow some
balls.

Cash trade price for gas is about 1.77/gal right now and march futures
runing about 1.76. April futures at about 1.82. Overall gas is up
about 25 cents on trades in last 2 weeks. Speculators are driving
prices up because oil has not increased that much and current cash
price for today is around 59.50 a barrel. You can thank Reagan for
this in that he opened up the futures market for oil products and it
generaly adds 10 to 15% to price for profit taking and a lot more when
they speculate.

Last summer we were buying diesel at over $3.50 per gallon. Lately we've
been buying it for $2.29 per gallon, instead of the $5 per gallon that
left wing morons like Harry were predicting. How can anyone complain
about fuel prices this month?

We would welcome you in all of these other states where fuel is much
cheaper, so long as you don't bring the left wing politics which
produced those high prices in CA.

So, show us, Mr. Drooler, where I predicted that diesel would be selling
for $5.00 a gallon? Or are you just naturally retarded?

You're not the only Harry around here. We also have a couple of Toms, and

The news ticker tape just said that Bay Area (San Francisco) gas prices
are expected to increase by 40 cents per gallon over the next two weeks!
What's the explanation for that? Anyone know some facts?
