I don't know about you guys, but here near augusta, GA, things are getting pretty bad.. Stations are running out of gas and it'l be 5 or so days before we get any more.

things are fine up here in new york (although the gas prices are very high -- averaging about 2.89 for regular unleaded and sure to rise) I hope your gas problems are solved soon... perhaps OPEC will release more oil, who knows? :-)

in the mean time, it's time to power our cars with corn! (fun-age)

Joliet IL finally got the spike today. Went from 2.85 to 3.40 and climbing. I can only imagine that chicagos got to be 50cents more. Just because.

It was around 3.49 in Chicago's north side this afternoon, so it's not that much worse than Joliet.

I just left my office in Decatur, GA (east Atlanta). That few gas stations I passed had prices ranging from $3.25-$4.00. The highest price I saw was near home in Stockbridge (south Atlanta) at $4.55/gal. Every station had a huge line of cars.
