I guess I should have filled up yesterday. 
Just went up to 3.05 a gal for the premium in North Mississippi.
To Splitz and ChocoTaco369: Excellent posts from you guys. Glad to see a few guys with their eyes open...
JMHO guys.

I used to work for an oil drilling company....now that was interesting!
Just a quick side note....there is nothing that ya'll can do about the price of gas....it's not worth getting mad over, just change the way you drive, or maybe not go out to eat fir dinner as often. When you check gague light comes on...just fill it up!!! WE've had to budget for gas at my home....costs us around $112/ week between a Pacifica and my daily driver Camaro just for the "privilidge" of going to work!
Remember, it's not George Bush's fault (Bush can not control the stock market, this is a capitalism, not communism), the Oil Companies fault (all they do it pump the oil, then sell it to the highest bidder, it the bid is up to $75 that's the way it is), the local gas stations fault (they buy it from the distributor that has to make a profit as well). It's the simple econimics law of supply and demand (and no, not the lack of supply of crude oil, lack of refining capabilies like ChocoTaco said). Take a look at the commodities market, right now crude oil is $75/ barrel.....that's a future COMMODITIES market, just like corn, cattle, hogs, soybeans. It's what the investors THINK that the stuff will be worth say...in the next two months. It's the investors that have risen the price of our "refined" gasoline.
