I think you and yours are going to take Obama's election, if he is
elected, very, very badly. Hope so.



Obama doesn't matter.
McCain doesn't matter.

There's some weird stuff going on in the world that soon will become
apparent, shocking and overwhelming.

Please don't tell me that SW Tom *really is* the Outerworld Overlord
sent to Earth to prepare the planet for a takeover.



I'd rather read that Penelope Cruz, Salma Hayek and Ann Hathaway are on
their way over to my house to kidnap me for a week of debauchery.

To briefly interrupt the mud slinging and insults, here's an interesting
take on oil prices:

Very interesting. I've followed the *peak oil* scenario for some time.
This is the first I've read of the Saudi's 100 and 200 year reserves
prediction.

As pointed out in the article I surely hope we don't become complacent. This
should be a wakeup call, we must pursue alternatives to oil with the vigor
of the Manhattan Project.

Yeah. I heard him being interviewed on the radio, so looked him up and read
some of his rantings.

He's not just a ET believer though, although he claims to have regular
communications with "them".
He has some really wild predictions of the new world order resulting in an
imminent nuclear war starting in Israel, and finished by an all out exchange
between the US and Russia. Noteworthy is that many of his predictions of
events leading up to this are happening as we type, including some of the
provocative recent moves by Russia. He claims all this is about to start.

His advice is to move south of the equator because the entire northern
hemisphere is going to be wiped out.

There's other stuff too .... related to the wall street meltdown, the dollar
becoming valueless, congress full of those "in the know", etc. You know ...
Larry stuff.

He used to be a wall street investment banker.

Don't think I take this stuff seriously. I don't. Besides, if he is
correct, what's the use in being concerned?

No offense, but I'd prefer to be kidnapped by Penelope, Salma and Anne.

Absolutely!


To get this back on topic (ignoring the flames and political crap from
the usual suspects)..........why don't pump prices drop when crude oil
barrel prices drop as fast as they increase when barrel prices rise?



Here's some data that you may find interesting.

http://www.newyorkgasprices.com/retail_price_chart.aspx

Set the chart options to show crude oil prices and any area of the country
you desire for retail gas price. Set the chart duration to 3 months. You
will note that the *retail* cost of gas did *not* peak in response to the
spike in crude prices. Therefore it seems like the cost of gas has not
dropped as fast as crude prices.

Make sense?


One thing I forgot to point out is that the prices for oil you hear quoted
in the news every day are for futures contracts. And that price is for a
contract to be delivered in the following month.

When we saw those $145/barrel prices, that was for futures contracts and I'd
bet no product actually changed hands at that price. That's where the
speculators lose money.
