From the local gas station babe. As I was talking to her the station across the street raised the price of reg. 6 cents. May be an interesting week.

Frooooooooozen on the Burgh.

I hear gas prices may go up in price in 8 years and could drop in price in that same time.

Rest assured, gas WILL go up in the next year. This is based upon NOTHING other than a gut feeling, so don't ask for figures.

Personally, I am more concerned with availability than with price.

Gas (and diesel) prices don't just hit our pocketbooks directly, but also are factored into anything that moves over the highway...and rails. We'll see additional freight costs, higher airline tickets, etc. in the not too distant future. The higher freight prices will reflect in the prices we pay in the stores...

(It's called inflation...)

Yep, exactly as we predicted, the non-compliant systems in refineries are gradually taking their toll. They tried their best to cover it up, but in the long run there is no way to avoid the realities. I predicted gasoline will be $5.00 a gallon by July, and it looks like I'm going to be right on target.

Good for you Hawk. Can you please post all of your other predictions so that we can check them out?
