Gas has been dropping like a bomb here in Eugene. We have relatively high gas taxes, yet my local station is $2.29 today. If it continues apace they'll be in the high $1.xx by this time next week.

And just in time as we're taking a road trip next week.

Our market is served by refineries that pipeline to within 100 miles, and those refineries are major buyers of Canada oil. The East and South are probably paying more because of the Texas situation, but I don't imagine that'll be an issue much longer.

But we still need to drill. Here. Now.
