[PRCo] Re: fuel costs

[Fred Schneider]

But it depends on where you are.   It is lower in Lancaster County  
than in Montgomery, Delaware, Chester or Philadelphia counties.  Let  
me phrase that another way, the closer you get to the refineries, the  
higher the price.  Difference is perhaps 10 percent.  More drive offs  
there?
