I am back from a trip to Europe and saw prices for a litre at 1.20 Euro
range. This works out to 4.53 euros per US gal, or about 5.38/US gal in
Europe. We took the train everywhere.....

I was watching this British car show last night called Top Gear. On the
show one of the hosts mentioned that "petrol" was between $8 and $9 U.S. a
gallon in England...

About three years ago when I was listening to the Roger Fredinburg radio
talk show www.regularguy.com a guy in either Texas or New Mexico
phoned into Roger's show and he said he retired from working at an oil
refinery.He explained how gasoline is a waste byproduct of the oil
refineries.Of course the gasoline at the oil refineries is cleaned up
and certain kinds of chemicals are added to the gasoline to make it burn
cleaner and perform better and there is the infrastructure and cost of
delivering the gasoliine (and diesel fuel too) to the gas stations.Los
Angeles (and many other cities in U.S.A.) used to have a very good
trolley car system many years ago untill the crooked Rockefella's had
the trolley system torn down in favor of oil and automobiles.Yesterday
or the day before,I read an article about the mayor of Los Angeles wants
to wean the people of Los Angeles away from their vehicles and on to
public transportation.The price of gasoline is very costly in many more
ways than one.I once read somewhere that most of the people in Europe
drive diesel engine powered vehicles.Jackson used to have a trolley car
system too,I wish the old fashioned trolley cars would come back.Most of
the trolley cars in U.S.A.were sold to South American countries where
many of them are still being used today.Some of the old trolley cars in
U.S.A.many years ago had a platform on the back of them and the trolley
cars were pulled along by horse's.When they got to the top of a
hill,they would let the horse ride on the platform on the down hill
runs.

All you guys have to do, over there in the USA, is make your
vehicles more fuel-efficient. Then you don't have to rely on
middle-eastern dictatorships/colonies to supply the oil. Over here in
Scotland, it's not perfect by a long way, but at least we have cars
which do decent miles-per-gallon (40+). A necessity, with gasoline
over $5/gallon.

Ian, Clydebank, Scotland.
