I wonder if we'll see the kind of fake out of gas scammers that popped up in LA last time gas prices got high ? I think I'm checking the gas guage of anyone I rescue on the lake who says he's out of gas but happens to have a siphon hose handy ....




As for those who inhaled a bit too much and end up in the ER ... I'd offer them a lit cigarette to ease their pain.
