what makes no more sense to me now than it did back in the 70's when I was in Jr High/High School, is that every time this happens we all run in circles, squawking the same things and then, once the price eases a bit, we all just forget about it instead of taking steps to prepare for the next time. In fact, it seems to me, we usually back-slide.

Of course if gas had gone up as much as other things have since I was in High School {class of '79, gas was $1.20/gallon] it'd be well over $15/gallon by now!
