beetlespin - 9/11/2008 6:10 PM I just want to say that anyone that goes and tops off their gas over this is just a puppet in a stupid game. All it does is show how weak and addicted we are to gas. There is no fundamental reason for gas prices to go up other than the fact that people will go pay it. I guess we will all have to go buy mopeds.

Funny thing Lance about the puppets.I have been saying that since yesterday. It only makes it worse!!!</p>

Call me a "puppet" if you wish, but I topped off last night and this afternoon for $3.49 a gallonemoLaugh!

3.49 may be a dream price if Fox news is right... I heard them saying this evening that, with Ike running up into Galveston bay, the price of gas could possibly double or eve triple... imagine.... 10-12 bucks a gallon??????????? big OUCH!

I had a move in Decatur, AL today. As of 3:30 today many of the gas stations there were totally out. All but one in town were limited in how much they would sell.

The sky is falling! The sky is falling! The sky is falling! Let's all rush out and buy our 10 gallons of gas before it gets to $38 dollars a gallon! Pathetic! That is how you describe the reaction of folks who are easily controlled.

This is my last commentary on any subject that is the least bit controversial. Pathetic!

All this reminds me of Katrina - I was in northern Wisconsin when it hit. Worried a little about driving the 1150 miles home, rumors of $5 a gallon gas and shortages. I left with a full tank in my truck and about 20 gallons in the boat. Tried to stop when I hit 1/4 tank and fill up.

The strangest stop was in southern Illinois. I pulled off the interestate and there was one gas station to the right and three to the left, so I went left. Two of those three were closed and the one left had only high test. As I pulled thru a woman had three 15 gallon Jerry cans filling them at the back of her SUV. Hightest was about 30 cents a gallon higher than the stated price of regular, but they wre out. I decided to go on to the next exit.

As I went back to the interstate I saw the station on the other side was open so I pulled in - and filled my truck with regular! They had plenty - and it was 30 cents a gallon cheaper than the gas the woman was stocking up on about a mile away.

I had no problem finding gas, including filling up in north Atlanta at 3 AM!
