Heh. Signed up there years ago thanks.
We should have some nationalism in our Land of Expensive Petrol ("Gasoline" - here it costs £1 a litre, give or take. That's what? $10 a gallon over the pond?)

I assume that's a joke... our gas used to be over 3$ a gallon and it's still mid 2s. =O

Forget not, friend shake, that you're converting between currencies and measuring systems. The British Pound is valued higher than the dollar, and a liter is somewhat smaller than a gallon.

Well I didn't realize the liter thing but still... it's probably about equal. (and I bet ours was higher after the supposedly oil-pwning hurricane Katrina) It should be, too, since I'm guessing gasoline is more or less an international good.

A few weeks ago prices were balanced at 2.10$ in my city. After a recent hike, they now sit balanced at around 2.55$. 
I wouldn't be suprised if GB gets a break soon from OPEC since they plan to withdraw their troops from Iraq fairly soon.
