Filled up yesterday for $3.09 a gal.

Took Interstate 70 to an auction yesterday and got the $3.09 gas at Bunker Hill Kansas. Other stations
on the interstate were flashing $3.19. Gas in my home town of Hays was $3.59, wonder how soon
everyone will come down? What's the prices where you're at?

in my part of texas it ranges from a low of $3.10 (at costco) to $3.78 (at a truck stop). Deisiel is still ranging between $4.50 - $5.50.

Those reserves are now depleted. The "peace" is going in the shitter. If it does get a restart, the projection is for months to clear the strait from the mines that were dropped. Iran was just sinking mines and has no idea where they are.

I do not expect $3.09 per gallon to last more than a month. My projection is based on the thoughts expressed in interviews by the Chairman of Chevron.

Your thoughts?
