The laws of supply and demand have nothing to do with what
Gary described. There is no gasoline shortage. There is none
anticipated as a result of the WTC being destroyed. None of
the targets were involved in gasoline production. The laws
of supply and demand do not explain such price gouging -- we
would have to run out of gas first.
