1 Arthur hasn't even said anything!  Thanks for the alert; I'll go fill up now before it starts going back up!

2 It's a huuuge topic of conversation in my workplace. Even I, a non-driver, has taken notice of this.

3 I was dancing in the streets when it first went down by only 2 cents a gallon! But now I'm in a quandary. Do I fill up now or wait to see if it goes down more?  It seems to be dropping every day. But if I wait too long it might go back up. What to do? What to do? So far, I'm going a half a tank at a time. 

4 Oh good!  I'm glad it's being noticed.

Pam - fill up now.

E - I can't believe you noticed!!! *grin*

DDP - I fill up whenever I go below half a tank regardless - I'm freaky paranoid like that.  It's like dollar cost averaging your investments.  Sometimes you pay more, other times less... trying to game the system can get you burned. In the end it mostly evens out.   LOL.

5 You got to have it either way, so burn what you got at the price you got it, and you're just gonna have to pay what the price at the pump is.  Anyone ever heard of a successful per gallon price negotiation with a gas attendant that didn't involve boobies?  Yeah, I didn't think so.

If they text messaged everybody that the price dropped 40 cents a gallon because it was overinflated to start with, then people would buy more and the "demand" crap would start makin' the rounds again and it'd go back up right quick.

Personally, I think everybody is walkin' to the Olympics in China right now so their demand is down.  Watch for the traditional post Olympic price surge once the beatings over there begin' again.

6 This is about the only thing I've across in the press:

Fuel for speculators at best.

7 No, but my boys noticed.  I pulled in to get gas today and my boys went NUTS showing me how its way way below $4 a gallon!

8 It wasn't all that long ago it was under $2 a gallon even here in North Korea (California). Get the price to under two and I'll do some cart-wheels. 

9  I'm still complaining about when gas got up to thirty-three cents a gallon.
 It was down to three dollars and forty-six cents per gallon today out here in northeast Texas.

10 Ahhhh, nuts. Filled my tank and now gas is going down. That means my car is depreciating even faster.

11 Peter - I remember when gas went to 69 cents a gallon and left me gasping.  LOL. 

MGA - I finally caught a break.  I was going to put gas in my car yesterday, but forgot (sometimes a bad memory is a good thing) gas dropped another 6 cents a gallon today.  Excellent.
