We broke the $4 mark in NKC. Monday it was $4.06 @ 6:30 pm then yesterday morning it was $4.09 then back to $4.06 and today it's $4.05. I think the bastards need to stick with a price and leave it.

Average seems to be down to $3.899 around here although I've seen as "low" as $3.859.

I'm not saying $4 gas is a good thing, however, it is having some good side effects. For one thing, more people are carpooling and avoiding unnecessary trips which reduces traffic for everyone. But what I think is a very good thing is that it is getting a lot of people thinking about and switching to alternative fuels, which is definitely a good thing. Oil was never meant to last forever, but everyone just ignored that fact while it was cheap, but now that it's $4/gallon people are realizing we NEED something better. [/Environmentalist rant]
