2. I can remember 25 cents a gallon. I was making $5000 a year

and had enough money left over to have a savings account. Plus I was smoking and drinking too.

4. I remember it well: those making 20 times $5,000 will weather today's

prices with but inconvenience while those making only a few multiples of $5,000 might have a problem, especially if they want to eat or have a roof over their heads.

3. Old my ass!

I was talking to a friend a few weeks ago about the gas wars in the early 60s in Iowa. Normal prices were about 15 cents/gallon. I remember one gas war where the price hit 11 cents/gallon.
