I never thought I would ever see gas below 3.50 a gallon the rest of my life.
Even here in this crazy state of CA, gas has dropped to $1.96. Of course the politicians are crying the blues, because the cheaper the gas, the less sales tax is collected....so guess who is talking about raising the tax on gas

Agreed. It just flipped to $1.72 near my house. Shocking considering I'm in the Chicago area!

I wonder since the spike was Bush's fault, if he should now get some of the credit?

There is alot of potential. Instead of getting rid of gasoline altogether, we use every energy source we can find and refine it to make it cleaner and work better. There is potential. The question is will we do it?

I think that we can. It may be a challenge for our society and especially for some who are unwilling to move forward, but I think that our society can if we put our minds to it. I would like to see alternative sources become mainstreem and be another alternative to oil. I do not think that we should abruptly end oil use, but phase it out over time and have alternative sources and electric vehicles be available in addition to oil. Regarding oil, I am for domestic drilling and production along with partnering with Canada to lessen our need for overseas oil and have a stable source oil source.
