Jay,
No enemy here but where in the world did you find gas in 1969 at 29 cents a gallon? Definately not here. We were paying well over $1 dollar per gallon by then. Most people realize that nearly everything is petrolium based and it runs the economy. But if gas has to go up by 25 cents per gallon overnight because of a refinery shutdown, why can't it ever come back down once they are back online? We just had a 45 cent per gallon increase last week overnight. It was $2.19 for the cheapest one afternoon and $2.64 for the same gas the next morning. I can't even use the cheap gas so I have to pay for the GOOD stuff, HA!! which has now dropped all the way down to $2.79 per gallon. That of the highest pump octane we can get here which is supposed to be 93 and I doubt if it is more than 88. It cost me $5.85 just to mow my lawns.
