I don't like paying a lot for gas either, but there are larger issues here. I know some of you don't believe there is a global warming problem, but think about the national security part of this.

I don't think to many would disagree in the Golbal warming part, Just how much is contributed by man.

Remember the ozone hole in the south pole... Caused by man, gonna be hudge. that was back in the early 80's

O wait it has always been there and shrinks and grows and wasn't caused by cars...

The Earth warms and Cools it's facts.... Now we are contributing to that in some way. But so do forrest fires and volcanoes and other natural events. It's just hard to tell.

And we won't run out of gas while I'm alive... I know that's selfish of me, But then we need to go to Alaska and get that oil..


Sorry off topic $1.65 in cedaredge

Prices in East Texas

Prices here vary from 1.61 to 1.69. I was in Shrevport La. yesterday and the prices hovered around $1.51. I don't understand since we have a refinery here in Tyler.

$.686 per litre (quart). Down from $1.35 last summer.

Odd the price of heating oil is higher than gas at $.829 and there is no tax on heating oil but there is over 20 Cents tax on gas.
