          Heh. I wish gas was that cheap here! Gas in Victoria just went up to 102.9 cents/litre (Canadian) yesterday -- that's $3.18 USD per US gallon.

          My van is about to die a horrible death anyway (head gasket leak) so I am going to have to find another way to get to the field, which is out in the sticks a half-hour drive away...

              Why do we pay a more per gallon for water in bottles than we do for gas without question?

              hmm... some things may never make sense. Oh well I have actually just gotten back into paintball recently and I don't think gas prices will stop me from taking all available chances to shoot and be shot by as many people as possible.

                    We've got a $2.91 for premium(not that I fill up with such Placebo gas) in Santa Ynez(just north of Santa Barbara). It becoming insane. The fact is, Apparently We have discovered all the major fields of oil, and these fields are already in use! Scientists, If you didnt have incentive before, here's your chance! I mean, we should have seen this coming, but for the most part, we americans dont like to think that far in the future (except for our 401ks). IM not saying its our fault, but we DO use ALOT of gas, not only in congested cities, like socal, chicago etc, but think of how much gas it takes to keep our military up and running.

                    As far as my paintball suffering, Ill have none of this. We make do, and put together little speedball fields on 1/2 acre lots in backyads n stuff. I kinda live in a suburb/rural community, so we can get away with that. If I didnt have that, Id just put together trips and cover my costs with my passengers paying for gas. Cheap for them, cheaper for me!

                      My grand cherokee is a 5.9 liter and requires 91 Gas is Los Gatos is just under $3/gal i heard on the news that the most expensive gas station is in Big Sur, CA (3.79/gal for 87! ). I also heard the cheapes gas can be found in Jersey. Lately I've been playing every other weekend because of the cost of gas. I only get 13.5 MPG and the field I play at is an hour away!

                            Absolutely nothing.

                            I play paintball no matter what... unless... like I have no ride

                            But that will be resolved in a week... when I get my license... hopefully...
