Well, think about that.  As much as I like to argue with Jim Holland,  
this time I agree that we have reached a very high gas price.  It's  
over $3 here for a gallon and I understand regular topped $3.20 in  
Bucks County yesterday.   She may not be driving as much as you  
think.   And I'm thinking about the the cost of working in Baltimore  
tomorrow, the PCC opening on Girard in Philly on Sunday and a couple  
of trips to Pittsburgh in the near future and suddenly that is $250  
worth of fuel.   Even I might slow down a little.

It will be interesting to see how this affects the CPI and it turn  
how much it inflates costs of everything.
