Gas was 3.209 at Mountain View. I got as mush as I could because, speculators will drive up fuel prices this summer. Any excuse will do.
The oil spill in the gulf is a real mess, the effect will go beyond my gas prices issues. But I can not do anything about it.
BTW we have an oil based economy because compared to everything else it's dirt cheap. Oil coal and atomic power come close and they are politically unpopular. All other power sources are very limited (hydro) or toys (solar, wind, corn).
