7. $1.93 A Gallon In Birnamwood & Wittenberg Wisconsin
Edited on Thu Jan-18-07 07:33 PM by Dinger
Whee!, BUT we need to have fuel alternatives. If gas went down to $.01 a gallon, we need to save our planet, or at least slow it down, WAY down.

8. I find the low price very depressing.
The problem is two fold. They have been robbing us blind since god knows when and now it appears that the low price comes with blood for our hands. Very sad. Peace, Kim

18. During the last election there were oil price conspiracies all over the place.
What conspiracy explains the falling gas prices now? Here in La Crosse we are down to $2.04 and I filled up last week at $2.14.

22. Could this be one of many reasons why Cheney was summoned to Saudi Arabia?
With the * family so deeply embedded with the House of Saud, could this also have been one of the reasons why Cheney went to Saudi Arabia, to discuss the planning?

27. maybe
The Sunnis are the ones getting picked on in Iraq and the Saudis are Sunni. The Saudis are afraid of an Iraq aligned with Iran.

21. Let 'em suck gas
Thanks to the moguls for throwing us a few crumbs while we try and digest the apparently severe consequences of not invading Iran and leaving Iraq.
What's next? Home insurance in Florida that's actually affordable?
These guys give capitalism a bad name - if that's still possible.

26. That's what I'm thinking
the oil company executives didn't feel like explaining $3.30/gallon to a Democratically controlled Congressional investigation.
