    Gas Pains !

     



    The U.S. government's forecast for average nationwide retail regular gasoline prices of $1.69 a gallon will be increased, the head of the Energy Information Administration said Thursday, but wouldn't say how much higher gasoline prices could go.



    An attendant changes gas prices on a sign at a gas station in San Rafael, Calif., Monday, March 1, 2004. Gas prices in California are the highest in the nation, jumping over $2.50 a gallon in some areas.

    I heard it has somtin to do with the dye used in gasoline, the old dye was supposivly carsiginouse so they have to get a new more expensive dye. Just price inflamation to me.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
