Re: Some body better be investigating this !



What is just dawning on me that 15 cents a gallon on the price of gas only means a buck or two on a $35 fill up. Hardly noticeable.

That same tankful used to cost me $22 or so, now its pushing $40. Whats a dime, at this point?

Speedway) in Kentucky the AG announced an "investigation" would take place
and gee just ANOTHER coincidence that late afternoon, evening the vast
majority dropped to 3.09.

Kinda funny even, I pass 6 Speedways on the way home, every other one was
3.09, then 3-4 miles down road 3.15, repeat.

it's the gloom and doom justifications for the price increases and knowing
that there's record making profits pouring in that creates the

to drive up the price of oil except the chance of a major earthquake hitting
oil supplying areas and another sheik dying.

we're so jaded by the regular media hype and the BS reasons that are given
for the change in price,  it's difficult to tell the true pictures from the
doctored ones.

Talked to an old client up there who does work for BP.

The spill was about 300 gallons. The repairs are to deal with corrosion
inside some of the pipes, where the "pigs" have scraped the coating off
some of the gaskets and seals. No finger pointing need come from
Boothworld. This was not envisioned 30 years ago when these sections were
assembled.

My contact said that they had called a bunch of their crews in from R&R
and put them on planes back up to the slope.

Something doesn't add up here:
