[Javaman]

[Subdivisions]

1. $116.80 n/t

[LSparkle]

2. That's gotta be either the price of a barrel of oil or to fill up your tank ...

[Subdivisions]

6. Both. lol. n/t

[liberal N proud]

9. Probably both

I don't know how we are going to be able to continue. And nothing promising coming in the way of fuel efficient transportation. NOTHING!

[taterguy]

27. Here's a promising fuel efficient vehicle

They've only been around 150 years.

Maybe you're not hip to them yet.

[liberal N proud]

30. If: A) your healthy enough to ride and B) short enough commute

[taterguy]

31. I'm gonna make a wild ass guess and say that applies to 10% of the populace

So if demand instantly shrunk 10% at least the oil companies would get a little nervous

33. Overall disability rate in the US is 19.4 percent

source: US Census Bureau, Population Profile of the United States http://www.census.gov/population/www/pop-profile/disabil.html

Couple that with the numbers of people who work more than 20 mile from home I think it effects more than 10% of the populace.

Next think about the people you work with, do they enjoy you coming into the office all sweaty from the ride? How about weather? much of the country the weather is not conducive to riding bicycles daily for a large portion of the year. Rain Snow, Ice.


If you want to live in a bicycle society, move to China where your commute may be less than a mile and everyone else on the street is on a bicycle too.

34. Your accusation of sweat indicates an ignorance about the subject.

Bicycles are incredibly efficient. They can be propelled without too much exertion. If I feel like getting a workout and working up a sweat I can do that. But if I'm just going to work I can do it without any heavy breathing or sweat. (Except for a couple weeks in August when I'll concede that it is too hot to bike to work and not sweat)

I was merely pointing out that options are available, but apparently there's not enough knowledge about these options, which is why I keep making tiresome posts about them.

[liberal N proud]

36. In Cleveland it is too cold and too much snow 5 months or more

And I wouldn't be caught on the road on two wheels with the idiot drivers in this area.

Bicycles are just not an option for everyone.

3. Hummer?

[lisa58]

4. wow...

...I just filled up and it cost me $5.00 more than the last time - I guess it will be even more next time.

[jayfish]

5. Your Fill-up Cost For The Day? -NT-

[sakabatou]

7. We lowered the price of gas to $116.04 per barrel

from yesterday's $111. Thank you Big Brother.

[notesdev]

10. Excuse me

while I go taunt a few of my mega-SUV-driving jerk neighbors.

[truedelphi]

17. Some of them might actually be invested in oil stocks and utilities

I can remember showing up for a day of work at the home of one of Marin's mega-rich.

The household was absolutely jubilant every time oil went up a notch.

One man's floor is another man's ceiling or something.

[notesdev]

28. 'Round these parts

I know where people keep their money. In the crashing market values of their overpriced homes. They might as well rename this town to "HELOC City"

[proud2BlibKansan]

35. My boss cheers every time the price of gas goes up

Her dad is a farmer who discovered natural gas on his land.

12. RBOB Gas set another record at $2.99, just a penny shy of $3. n/t

32. Now that's funny!!!!

Seeing as I'm one of the people who bet him on the price of oil, it warms my heart. He deserves some recognition for putting his money where his mouth is.

[DAGDA56]

20. Which is 73.46 Euro, if my calculations are correct

[Yavin4]

23. Hey, Hey, Exxon CEOs Have To Eat Too, You Know

It's just as hard for them to put food on their family.

[Subdivisions]

25. Intraday record - $117.00. Settle record - $116.62 n/t

[Fireweed247]

26. On a positive note, Alaska is doing well for itself

Good time to move and collect record breaking dividends!
Then again our gas is $4.00 per gallon- I think we should get a break or something!
