Not hedging has been Dougie's strategy, and right now he looks like a genius. But what if the price goes up? It's not really gambling, but more like insurance. I have no problem with it personally. It's just a cost of doing business when you spend the kinds of money we do on fuel. Sometimes you are the windshield, sometimes you're the bug. We own a refinery. We are on the other side of that table now.
