this energy crisis is killing us as a nation and hurting millions of middle class and poor Americans and it is only going to get worse.

Howard?
Howard Dean, is that you?

I don't believe your extremist rhetoric, mainly because I have seen NO decline in the number of gas-fueled vehicles on the roads.

"I don't believe your extremist rhetoric, mainly because I have seen NO decline in the number of gas-fueled vehicles on the roads."

Could it also mean that consumers have no other option? I mean how are you going to get to work? Get groceries?

Households may cut back on driving vacations, but they are still going to drive Susie to soccer.

So what you do is keep loading up the credit card which the public is skilled at and the $3.25 a gallon is not a real price that has to be faced.

I think if these prices stay like this, there will be some strong negative effects within a year regardless of what the "experts" tell us.

I have seen a heck of a ot of motorcycles and scooters, though. I'm thinking about one myself, too.
