| Ethanol degrades performance in *any* heat engine..... as there is
just not as much heat energy in ethanol as there is in gasoline. That is one of the major (as far as I am concerned) difficulties with
ethanol... it makes any vehicle short legged....

| Wish our trend was following your's more closely..... it's now down to
$2.39 from $3.59+.

| $2.02 here and falling for regular. They give ten cents a gallon
discount if you pump 10% ethanol and it's octane rating is +2 from
regular. --

| Which of course is no bargain. A 5% discount for more than that in loss
of fuel economy? It's quite likely with most vehicles. Rob |

| But you told me you were paying $1.56 just a month ago when I told you that
I was paying $3.25+ for mobile boat refueling? |

| Do not know if ethanol degrades a Silverado. We just get the regular and
forgo the discount, free lottery ticket and cup of soda, that go with 10
gallons or more of ethanol. --

| The increases were from profit taking due to the damage to the US gulf coast
refineries from Katrina. Not too hard to predict NOYB. ;-) And yes, they will most likely continue to fall now that we are approaching
winter. |

It will come. The trend is downwards. Let's hope the price at the docks will do the same by next Spring. ;-) |

| I think part of what's driving down gas prices at the pump is all the
public disgust at record oil company profits. That's likely to be a very
short term trend. Right now, we're burning more oil than ever and discovering very few new
fields. Unless you believe world petroleum reserves are infinite, then
the long term trend is for gas to increase. DSK |
