I put $100 in my volkswagon SUV yesterday. It stopped at $100 not because the tank was full but that was the maximum the machine would authorize my credit card.

If gas reaches $15 bucks a gallon rationing will not be necessary -- at least for consumers. I simply would not go anywhere that required gasoline.

Invest in Dr. Scholl's Foot Pads. There's a big market trend about to break through in that area.

Bicycles. Motor scooters.

Write letters to all your congressmen aldermen, mayor, governor etc to put money into mass transit.

The era of cheap mobility is over.

I remember in the 70's $100 worth of gas would take you across the country.

Everyone can't soar to where they want to go on moonbeams like SOME people we know named Yvettep.

By the way

What are you doing up this early?

Chris, moonbeams do get great gas mileage, but their cargo space is not very adequate.
