    Hmmm.....don't know about that. I know for awhile they were holding back 1mil. barrels a day. Dunno about now. Either way, untill they go back down to reasonable levels, I can gripe all I want.:)

      true. but hey, its economics. They aren't in the business to make people rosey. Plenty of people still paid when they charged over $2 for a gallon of gas.

        EXACTLY. Couldn't have said it better myself. Supply and Demand. The oil companies know it. Basically, they know they can jack the prices and people will still pay. And people gotta pay, or else they're takin the bus!

                      $2.16 for Premium... the Bay Area (San Jose in particular) always gets raped on gas prices.

                          $1.79 here. I spent $30 for half a tank of gas today. So much for my nitogen system fund.

                            weak... every summer our gas prices go up to 215 for regular and our prices are a constant 1.89 for the lowest octane.
