| __________________________________ [Aug 28,2005 6:22pm - succubus ""] advice: fill up today..prices are gonna rocket tomorrow.... |
| ______________________________________ [Aug 28,2005 6:34pm - the_reverend ""] why? |

| __________________________________ [Aug 28,2005 8:50pm - succubus ""] Katrina and i don't mean my "twin" Oil is going to take a huge jump tomorrow due to Katrina. The perception of the rigs being out of service, not to mention their are a few refineries in the area where the 'cane is going to hit, is going to blow the per barrel price through the roof. We could see $70+ per barrel this week yielding gas price hikes nationwide. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 28,2005 8:57pm - brian_dc ""] anyone else getting this e-mail thing, the idea to not buy gas from the biggest gas company, exxon/mobil/esso, in order to force some sort of pricewar so that they'd have to lower prices to compete it's actually a really bad idea economically, but if enough people decided to be selfish for a little bit it would make the shit cheaper for a little bit. |
| __________________________________ [Aug 29,2005 2:16pm - succubus ""] ok so tomorrow it's gonna reach $3 a gallon someone who works for a gas company said it..so fill up ASAP...tomorrow will be hell |
| ______________________________ [Aug 29,2005 2:19pm - BSV ""] yeah! the gulf is the largest producer of oil in the US...also 40% of the seafood in the US comes from there, so expect those prices especially shrimp to rise real soon. |

| _____________________________________ [Aug 31,2005 8:39am - RustedAngel ""] I heard that it's still not worth getting a hybrid in the long run. The batteries end up dying and are not covered, so you have to buy new ones $$$$$. but they are still looking good at the moment. haha. |

| _______________________________________ [Aug 31,2005 4:25pm - niccolai nli ""] Filling up your tank before prices rocket further will just make them more money. If for three days no one bought gas and walked, used busses, or rode a bike than the price of gas would reduce drastically. And that doesn't mean everyone fill thier tanks before that three days, it means stop using it. The hippies were right |
