| | We're getting back to normal in Tallahassee. For just over a week, gas stations were not selling gas. I had heard that the major companies refused to sell gas for that much, the hole in the wall places were selling it for $5.50 or so. But as of now, there's starting to be gas at normal prices again. |

| In my area, some stations were asking customers to voluntarily limit their fuel purchases to only 10 gallons to "help out" areas effected by the hurricanes.
In a way, I'm glad to see the "shortages" simply because it may force some people to truly consider alternate sources of fuel. I think most American's don't give it a second thought until there are rising costs and pockets of shortages.

I love it when I see someone drinking a drink from Starbucks but they are b1tching about gasoline prices. Starbucks costs like $45 per gallon. Bottled Water is $16 per gallon. Give up your Jags, Gators or Noles tickets for a year and folks would have money for gas.

How many gallons of coffee do you drink a day?
Ink on smaller Epson ink-jet printers runs about 2 bucks per milliliter or about $7570 a gallon.
It's all relative to usage.
