I think this is the time of year when refineries have to shut down to switch over to, what I call, the "Summer Flavor" of gasoline to satisfy the EPA and state regulations.
Hell, why not just pull the plug, shut down all the refineries, and let the pencil necks in Washington and Sacramento operate the refineries.
LOL! Then there'd be a firefighter shortage...
