| Even for a simpleton like cowscnut it should be fairly easy to understand. Oil is cheaper than it has been for quite a while. Gas (petrol) is rising. Oil is the raw material for gas. Therefore the price of the refined product should also fall. Except in the UK of course where fuel duty has been rising still higher. | |  | | Cowboy | | Posted: Wed Apr 15, 2009 5:28 am Post subject: |
| What entirely stupid logic from you. | Quote: | Oil is the raw material for gas.

Regardless... Oil prices have dropped about in half from their peak, and so have gasoline prices. | |  | | | ©2002-2009 WarWithoutEnd.co.uk |
