Have a good one!:s4:
Wow.. $60/barrel. I hadn't actually heard a figure on what inflation speculation was worth. That is insane, that is about 40% of the current value of a barrel.

Let's hope congress votes on this... Let's also hope that our government doesn't lose sight of what's important and still continue to research alternatives fuels/energy so we don't run into this mess again.
