Since you invited me, I will opine!I believe that all representatives and congressmen that have served over the past twenty years should be convicted of treason and hung by the neck until dead. This would be for their crimes committed against the united states by creating the energy situation that we are in today.With that being said, we must do a few things to start the ball rolling in the right direction. 1) Repeal all laws restricting drilling in ANWR and off of our coasts.2) Build some refineries. Oil is useless without a way to turn it into fuel.3) Embrace nuclear energy. We made a few bad films about Nuclear that devastated the industry.4) Dump the subsidy and mandate for "food to fuel" programs. Admit it was a bad idea.If we embrace some of these ideas, we may see some relief down the road. If not, we won't.I saw yesterday where the House passed a bill allowing us to sue OPEC. That is simply insanity. If anyone should be sued it should be the idiots in Washington.Ok I'm done. I have to go to work now. ;-)(I need to stop and put $150 worth of gas in my Suburban)Jeff

I don't like high fuel prices !! :M:M:W:WEnd of rant and now lets get back out there and go camping !!Thanks...I feel better now !

And fuel will probably get pricier when Congress passes the CLIMATE CHANGE SECURITY ACT.

One other idea is to repeal the laws that require something like 8 or 9 different gasoline formulations depending on where you live in the U.S.

This from the AP wire a few minutes ago:NEW YORK - Oil prices bolted to a new record above $132 a barrel Wednesday after the government reported that supplies of crude oil and gasoline fell unexpectedly last week. And crude's rise in the futures market again pressured consumers by pulling prices at the pump higher — a gallon of regular gas rose overnight to a new record above $3.80 a gallon. In its weekly inventory report, the Energy Department's Energy Information Administration said crude oil inventories fell by more than 5 million barrels. Analysts had expected a modest increase. Gasoline inventories also fell and took the market by surprise.Light, sweet crude for July delivery was up more about $3, rising as high as $132.08 a barrel in late morning trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange.At the pump, the average national price of a gallon of regular gas rose 0.7 cent overnight to a record $3.807 a gallon, according to a survey of stations by AAA and the Oil Price Information Service. Prices are 60 cents higher than a year ago, and many forecasters believe they'll hit $4 on a national basis at some point over the next month. Prices are already that high in many parts of the country, and the number of stations charging $4 or more rises each day.Diesel fuel rose 1.9 cents to its own record price of $4.558 a gallon Wednesday. Rising prices of diesel, used to transport most consumer and industrial goods, are sending prices of food and many other goods higher.

Next emergency is here. It's called Thanksgiving. Prices rising. On top of that is bad weather in East U.S. which brings on snow and ice roads. Gas prices rise.
Due to Black Friday on Thursday, more people driving to malls, Gas prices rise.
Any other excuses will be permitted to keep the theme of gas price rises. I was paying 3.07 once, now same station is 3.19 All within about 10 days.

Well, it looks like the attempt to jack up gasoline prices has failed. Many stations that went to $3.15 a gallon have dropped to $3.09 to $3.11. Gee, I wonder who did that......:R

Cummins owns 50% of Westport (2001) specifically to build CNG engines from the ISB up to and including the ISX

I'm going to have one built - and with CNG at 1.50/gal less than diesel, I should be able to re-coup the money in three years.

The correct engine company is Cummins.

The Cummings Westport engine plant is making them as fast as possible. Volvo has announced they will be building them in their North Carolina plant. Now 3 companies are installing filling stations along the East West corridors.

Our local prices are only one or two pennies away from that magical $3.00 mark. By Thanksgiving we should be below that mark. Diesel, of course, is 50-60¢ a gallon more.

I am surprised diesel continues at a premium as many trucks move to natural gas.
Maybe it will take another 3 to 5 years for the long haul trucks to begin the switch in earnest. I believe it is mostly just local fleets for now.
