Thats all this is is an excuse to hike prices!!! Don't they (BP) have to execute maintenance from time to time???? Yet we need to pay the freight?!?!?!!! These SOB's are really pissing me off....and our wonderful government should be ashamed of itself as it has a hand in the middle of this "convenient" situation!!!!! Never heard of oil spiking like this before the whole Katrina fiasco!!!! Now if any newsworthy event happens such as a hurricane, routine maintenance on a pipeline or any such nonesense the price of gas conveniently goes through the friggin roof!!!!!! This is a new phenomenon where they can just make boat loads of money off us poor bastards!!!!! The price spikes have "ZERO" to do with events in the middle east as many think....it has only to do with a government that is not taking care of business by regulating such bullshiite!!!!!!!!!
