Got Gas?

This is the strangest thing ever. Here in Atlanta there is a gas shortage. This morning on my way to an appointment I passed a QT selling regular unleaded for $3.97 at around noon. There were lines of cars backed up to the street. On my way back to the basement at around one, they were all out of gas.

I filled up last week and I don't drive that much, so I'm good. I encourage James to start looking for gas when he gets down to about a half a tank.

Last week there was a big wreck on 85 that stopped all traffic for about two hours. As bad as that was, dozens of people ran out of gas because of idling in traffic for so long. It's times like these that make me happy that I work from home.

The EPA has allowed stations to start selling less-clean gas, which makes me wonder how that's going to affect engines, but I suppose people have to get where they're going.

A while back James did this blog where he studied the effects of a severe gas shortage and its effects on society. Kind of interesting if you ask me.

People have taken to following tanker trucks around. Kind of awkward if they're full of milk.

Keep on trucking folks!
