Now that Oil is $85 per barrel.....

[Captain Sensible]

... can someone look up what the price per gallon was last time it was $85?

I'd love to know what we should be paying versus what we are still paying.

And yes I know it may take a while to come down but i'm just interested in

what others feel the price should be.

1. It was 58 cents cheaper than what we are paying now.

Notice the number of oil commercials on TV including that one
with the pleasant woman walking through a white background telling
you might own an oil company. Which explains the 58cents.

2. 85? less.

Nymex Crude Future 81.04
Dated Brent Spot 77.12
WTI Cushing Spot 81.08


all 80 or less over the weekend.

4. Last year when oil was at this price gasoline was 58 cents cheaper

than it is today at this price.

3. What a surprise that the prices have gone down.

How many of us predicited that it would drop right before the election?
I'm sure they'll find Bin Laden, too. Or maybe not because then we'd
have one less terrorist to be afraid of.
