Agree with all you say, but would offer this minor modification:

Value is the perceived balance of Supply and Demand

IOW, not actual supply and demand, but what appears to be the balance between S&D. That's why certain rumors tend to raise the price for a while. Also why Congress and the President TALKING about removing the government obstacles to domestic drilling helped to lower the price by 15% in a short period of time. Were there other factors? Yes, but . . .

Sure....absolutely. "Offer" accepted. : )

No one actually knows exactly what day to day supply is. Nor demand. And there are, as you say, other factors. Rumors of war, famine, hurricanes, etc...etc.

FRegards,

We are usually 10 cents a gallon lower than Miami. Now we are 10 cents higher! Right at a time when we have lots of motorists coming our way—first time we have encountered this.

All I've found so far is this.

Beware the Ides of August by FOX News Crews by Chad Pergram

This was historic. Because live video (and rarely private video) has never been streamed from the House chamber. Ever. But we did that today. On FOX.

This is a battle that’s close to my heart. My first job in Washington was at C-SPAN. There, C-SPAN founder Brian Lamb has wrestled with Congress for nearly 30 years to allow cameras into the House and Senate chambers. Lamb’s always argued the cameras shouldn’t be controlled by the government. Let private news organizations shoot the video like we do at press conferences and hearings and interviews we conduct.

I'm sorry a few hours is no big deal and this time it really wasn't enough......

From my standpoint I have been trying to urge pubbies to do something to show they are not afraid to take strong action on important issues and Friday they did!

Was it enough probably not, but was it an excellent start? IMHO, Yes, unequivocally!

She'd like to, and she may succeed, but as Newt said in his interview with Hannity this afternoon, the adjournment vote was 213-212. That is an indication that cracks are appearing in Dem solidarity on the drilling issue - not to mention Madam's botox. Pelosi leaves town barely in control of her worker bees, most of whom are now in a position of having to defend their vote to avoid taking action on oil drilling until after a 5 week recess.

That 5 week recess also gives Pelosi 5 weeks to get her worker bees back in line in the hive.

“Did you know...that most commodities traders lose money? About only 1/3 make money.”

I’m not surprised. I heard a radio caller say that storage for oil speculation costs 10% per year. It would be easy to lose money. Only the ‘Big Boys’ should try oil speculation, people who know the market inside out. And even they should hedge their investments to some degree.

Yep. Newt’s been a hero on this issue too. Drill here, drill now! I thought it compelling the way Newt said that each vote to adjourn was a critical one. Every SINGLE one [of those 213] is under the gun for high gas prices.
