Since someone, possibly you, pointed that out when the chicken little articles flooded the MSM a month ago on their regular cycle, it is as clear as a fnord when they bring up refinery capacity as an answer to everything. Why do they do that?
Look at post #18 - it apparently tricks some folks who don't think of the two-step it takes to get gasoline to gas stations. Refinery capacity down means less gasoline, price of gas goes up - but the price of crude should go down on the same news.
