Holy Shnikes, I paid 3.23 last night at a station near my house because I didn't want to cruise around and look for a bigger discount. My reference station has been holding at $3.19/gal for a couple weeks now. My membership at BJ's usually nets a discount, but dannnnnnngit!!

Sure there might be a huge deposit here somewhere.
The Government doesn't REALLY care. To many politicians have their hands covered with oil money.
And don't forget we might do extinction to the tit mouse, or polar bear, or some strange creature.

That meteor is no joke, "well astroid". 2029 its either going to come real close "closer than our satalites orbit" or its going to go through a key hole and get sucked into our gravitational pull and kill the majority of us. Nasa has some cool ideas to deflect it though ranging from solar parachuttes to ships that use their own gravity to divert the astroid, and of course ion rockets and nuks etc. Thought i would mention that. Gas is killin me as it is, i just got a good deal on a 250 ninja. Close to 80mpg and all sorts of fun. Should cut fuel costs this summer by ALOT. I just have to watch out for people who want to run me over.... not like its any different in a fiero. So at least i have some practice. ------------------

Makes no difference how big a reserve is as far as the price/barrel goes--or the price/gal of gas--unless it is an astronomically huge reserve---and even then, it better be a proven reserve that can be quickly, cheaply, and easily extracted. The price is set by demand---and only marginally augmented by supply, which means slightly shorter or slightly longer supplies will have only a nominal affect on the price of a barrel of oil. The lag time between discovery, development, and true production in any given field is years--not weeks or months.
About all the Dakotas field can do short term is provide jobs. Long term it may (or may not-depending on our increase or decrease in demand) stave off total dependance on imported petroleum.

If you are a member of BJ's here in Hampton, gas is $3.34 a gallon. Everywhere else regular gas seems to be $3.41 to $3.55 a gallon. And don't start pricing Premium!
