Gas Prices in Perspective

I thought Jim Borgman of the Cincinnati Enquirer made a good point with this recent cartoon.

For some of his earlier work, see this archive.

Unfortunately that is $3 X 10 gallons = $30.
It will be even less funny when the equation is $10 X 10 gallons = $100.
This is exactly where we will be if we cannot reduce demand.; 5/14/2006 8:00 PM

However fuel for your automobile is necessary.

So it's not really an apt analogy.; 5/15/2006 11:10 AM
Arun Khanna said...: 'Starbucks' gas stations refers to availability of 'latte' priced alternative fuels at gas stations. I heard that Willie Nelson has 8 such gas stations near Nashville already.; 5/15/2006 4:56 PM
