Isn't there a situation where whenever the economy shows a little life, gas prices go up and kill it? Won't we see that repeat over and over?

Pretty much. This is the pattern for the next several years until alternative fuel sources are price-competitive on a $/joule basis with gasoline without eating into the food supply. Just hope that policy makers don't keep trying to use textbook economics to fight the downturn.

Nat gas is roughly $1.30 a gallon if people did the conversion. The problem is fewer retail delivery sites. We are #1 in nat gas right now thanks to hor drilling in the past 5 years.

It will not matter that much because the entire govt and financial system now is totally corrupt and going broke.
