A brave a nobel jesture.
By the way the sky is falling here,gas to hit $4.00 a gallon or better next week. Talk of shortages and panic. I can actually feel the tension.
It reminds me some of the feel after Sept 11 2001.
The bright side is that when people with cheap cars fill up, their cars will be twice as much.
The bad part is that truck carry beer and trucks use petrol products .
SCARY!
Huskey,
Juice is certainly on the way up here to. around AU $1.25 litre which tranlates to about $4.55 per gal in your currency. Good thing is the bicycle doesn't use a lot.
I often wonder when people with older cars fill up, are they over capitalising?
I think the situation down in New Orleans looks pretty grim at the moment and it will probably get tougher for the folk down that way for a while yet.
When thinngs get seriously difficult, we can always go back to making our own. The poor folk down the Mississipi can't even get decent water to make it at the moment.
Kind regards,
