...How Much is Gas in your Area...? ? ?

I don't mind the price of gas, it's the added taxes that
hurt.

It just bounced back up to $2.01 for the cheap stuff.

> Will you be driving anywhere this spring or summer?

Nope. We've got a couple of camping trips planned for the summer
but they're in-state. That's pretty normal though -- both of our
families live either here in WA or on East coast, so we either take
a short drive or fly, as the case may be. Which is fine because I
don't like long car trips...

Ted shuffled out of his cave and grunted these great (and sometimes not
so great) words of knowledge:

In NE Connecticut regular is between $1.99 and $2.11 a gallon. Soon to
go up about $.04 a gallon due to increased state tax.

The wife and I still plan to go to Myrtle Beach this year. My Chrysler
van gets about 25 on the road so it shouldn't be too bad. The gas down
in that area should be a little better.

well then don't do it. from all of the reports I see there is no real long term
benefit. it just increases stress costs a lot causes Americans to be lazy and
increases pollution.
myself I commute on my bike 20 miles a day 5 days a week rain or shine.

propane.

Yes. Hi Ho, Hi Ho. It's off to work I go... And maybe Saskatchewan...

On Topic to appease r.f.c police:

Anybody have any experience/recommendations for cooking manicotti stuffed
with spinach, feta, tofu and seansonings on the exhaust manifolds of a
Ford 351 Windsor (I think) running on propane?

Any recommendations as to what the seasonings for the above project
should be?

Thanks,

Too mukkin' futch!

We're going to look back fondly at last year's $2.35/9
 
About $7.50 for a chicken burrito and nachos with jalapenos at Benny's
Burritos.

I paid $1.99 last night for 93 octane premium. Won't hinder my driving until
it rises above $3.50 or so....gas is still cheaper than it was 20-30 years
ago (when taking in to account inflation).

Just an FYI, gas is only $.17 (yes, 17 cents) in Venezuela...at least
according to the wire services a couple of weeks ago.
 
OHHH! I love Benny's Burritos. When I lived in NYC, I ate there at least
once a week. Good margaritas too!

Get used to it. Demand from rapidly industrializing China
and India is only going to grow stronger.

Gas is free if you know how to siphon.
But don't get caught.

Bigolhomo... you love me! Besides, it's up to $1.98 now; which means it's
about $2.04 near work. :p

Yeah, but that nasty aftertaste... there's not enough Juicy Fruit to make
that taste go away.

$3.08 US a gallon when you work the conversion. (18.5 L/dollar) It's 57
Lempira a gallon in Honduras. Makes me glad I don't own a car.

Ames, IA: $1.99/gal for ethanol unleaded, $2.04/gal for regular unleaded.

It's a few cents higher in Des Moines, from what I've seen on the news.

> Will you be driving anywhere this spring or summer?

Seven-hour trip to my parents' place for Easter. Possibly another trip
there in summer, unless they come here (unlikely since they have a Durango).
