Post for us how long it takes for a barrel of crude to be processed into its various components, specifically unleaded gasoline, and then try posting that comment again.

I would guess a lot long in the past 20 or so years, since the envirowackos and nimby's prevent us from building new refineries with the newest technology.

That's all well and good, but I own a business and have an account with a station down the street. I've always wondered how as soon as oil prices jump, and they had almost daily for a couple of mo's, gas prices go up that day. When crude drops it takes weeks for prices to fall, relative to the price of crude.

FYI; About four hours in a modern refinery.
