I guess I do not see cheaper prices anytime soon after Bu$h went to Saudi asking them to pump more oil for us and the King said "we would but there are no buyers". Tells me that the Hedge fund guys are driving the prices and not the actual demand. Demand is down here in the USA but China demand is way up. 

Also, our reserves are at a record, almost 800mil last I heard which represents a 98% capacity. 

I think that "if" we all made the decision to just not use gas for a week "if" we could get 50% of the people in this country to plan a week of no usage then things would be different.

1-20-09 will end the nightmare and begin a new one.
Let's face it, our current govt is the cause of all our problems.
