[Vision2020] The Cost of Gas Locally

[Bev Bafus]

Attached is a picture we took while in Arcata, California on May 29, 2008.

My daughter tells me that regular at this same station is now $4.85.

It is now $4.15 per gallon of regular gas at the Conoco on Hwy. 95 on the 
south edge of town.

Crude oil closed yesterday at $143.77 a barrel.

This is not a case of supply and demand, folks.  If it were, we would be 
rationing gas like we did back in the 70s.

The reason for increased gas prices can be spelled out very easily.

S-P-E-C-U-L-A-T-I-O-N

It's what's driving the market.

Thoughts?

Now, if you will excuse me, I have an appointment at Moscow's farmers' 
Market.

Seeya round town, Moscow.
