[panamania79 2]

Gas is now $3.50 a gallon.In some MA towns it is a few cents cheaper,but not much.If this keeps up,I'm going to buy a motor-scooter.

Or "Scotts" fertilizer for that matter.

Will gas prices keep going up?

All indications are that they will.

Right now you can get a jammin' deal on most any gas guzzling land barge sitting on the car lot. That is...if you can afford to feed the hog after you buy it.

Here the gas is almost hitting $4.00 ...diesel already crossed that line...well it´s still half of what gas costs in Europe

I figure we're spending about $30-40 a week more now than we did back in February. If it continues to go up, we're going to have look into cutting spending in other areas.

Lindsey Williams says there is a lot of oil in Alaska the government isn't telling us. Gas should be up to 4 to 5 dollars a gallon pretty soon.

Russia is drilling and finding oil at 40,000 ft. Way below where it should be with may point to abiotic oil (waste material of bacteria).

I'd be interested in hearing how people are coping with the gas prices. What are you doing to cut down?

I've tried to consolidate my errand running, but pretty much every basic I need I have to drive to...hair cuts, groceries, restaurants.

I'm also sad about the upcoming months...my favorite low cost activity is driving to some beautiful place within two hours and going hiking. Looks like this will be extremely expensive to continue doing, but I really don't know how I'll stay sane this summer without going hiking!

Secret oil fields?

I think it would be much better if they built up an excellent public transport system throughout the entire USA like they did it in Europe

You can hike over the bridge to Attleboro.

Just kidding.

BTW: How are rents in Pawtucket now ?

Oil companies back in the day bought up and closed public transport infrastructure (trollies, bus lines etc.). To keep us using cars.

Once demand drops precipiously because of slowing economies, maybe we'll see a relief. If the greedy bastards behind the high costs have their way, they'll raise prices even more to maiintain their profit levels. What kind of motorcycle would be best for a relatively short commute of 4 miles each way?

Much better than in Prov. It's one of the last places in RI you can find a fairly nice place for an okay price. I pay $650 (heat included) for a one bedroom in downtown Pawt.

Global conspiracy It´s like X-files

You can go hiking there where you live and not spend the money on gas
