$4.16 in central CT today (that's 87 octane with a credit card, cash in 9 cents cheaper). It's gone up 35 cents in the last 2 weeks. We'll be at $5.00 by the 4th of July.
Again, what are the arguments against drilling? Anyone here been to Norway? They have drilling operations everywhere, it woule never occur to them to let oil go untapped. And it's a spectacularly beautiful country, with one of the best economies in the world.
Many issues are so complex that there's no obvious answer. In this case, it's unfathomable to me.
