9. Well, if y'all didn't throw such a panic, so that all the cars in Georgia
have a full tank of gasoline today instead of the usual average of half a tank, you wouldn't be running out, now would you?

13. Exactly...it's a false panic.
If there wasn't a run on gas, stations wouldn't run out so quickly.



CONSERVE!

14. In another post I predicted $4 in a coupla days ...
and now DU is getting reports of $5 in Atlanta.

I fear the east coast depots are actually running dry. This is uncharted territory, if there is absolutely no gas in big parts of the east coast tomorrow or Friday.

15. I just paid $2.68 in Connecticut at a Mobil surrounded by $2.99-$3.08
Not sure why, but I got gas today at 2 Mobil places. One in the morning in my car that was $2.57/gallon and tonight in my wife's car at $2.68. I usually do not go to Mobil, but it was dramatically cheaper.

The $2.68 Mobil station was surrounded by a bunch of others that were $2.99 to $3.08/gallon.
