I understand everyone's point of view but (and maybe I missed it on one of the earlier pages) has anyone just considered that oil may be over $100 a barrel becasue for the last couple years we've been slipping toward a recession and the dollar sucks? The canadian dollar was stronger than the US dollar just a year and it's hovering at .98 to 1 right now! Maybe I'm naive here but I'm sure our tanking economy is helping to push that oil price up a bit?
Besides, can't be that bad yet right? No one is waiting in line for gas at the stations and no one is car-pooling yet, so I guess "we're" all just happy drinking our $4 dollar lattes and complaing about $3 gas!?
