Re: [MBZ] Oh, thank heaven.
I assumed this was in Mammoth or one of the places where trucking in gas is very difficult. Back in 2016 dad and I were moose hunting in Grand Lake Stream, Maine: https://goo.gl/maps/ZajrbzssB8jMGcbW7 IIRC gas was $5/gal where it was something like $2/gal out at the highway. It was then that I realized the gas was trucked in in 55 gallon drums. The extra price was the shipping. Thats what you get in a town of 230 people at the end of a dead end road. Good moose hunting though. -Curt On Wednesday, June 22, 2022 at 06:40:09 AM EDT, Jaime Kopchinski via Mercedes wrote: Still believing everything you see on the internet? https://www.npr.org/2022/06/21/1106450478/this-7-eleven-isnt-charging-7-11-for-gas-elon-musk-twitter-reddit On Tue, Jun 21, 2022 at 2:23 PM mitch--- via Mercedes wrote: > And it's not even the 11th of July yet... > > https://t.co/YhpHKcCYXz > > ___ > http://www.okiebenz.com > > To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ > > To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: > http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com > > -- Jaime Kopchinski http://www.jaimekop.com/ ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

Look at the Line 5 tunnel under the Straits of Mackinac, designed to protect a vital pipeline from freighter captains dropping anchors where they're not allowed to. It was approved legislatively, so that it could only be unapproved by a similar act of legislation. When the reins of government changed hands in Michigan, the new Governor and Attorney General declared the existing pipeline unsafe and demanded its immediate shutdown, while using taxpayer dollars to file suit against the safer replacement to halt construction. That cost a lot of time the pipeline company and the residents of the UP can never get back, along with millions of dollars the pipeline company can never get back. ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

Re: [MBZ] Oh, thank heaven.
I stopped to get a few gallons of gas at a local station. Premium 93 was $6.40/gal I had to look twice, thought it was 5.40. I wonder if this was unadulterated stuff for boats. 89 was like 5.30 so I got a few gallons of that. Was 4.95 at Costco this evening, it has come down a bit from last week. --FT Sent from iFōn > On Jun 21, 2022, at 2:23 PM, mitch--- via Mercedes > wrote: > > And it's not even the 11th of July yet... > > https://t.co/YhpHKcCYXz > > ___ > http://www.okiebenz.com > > To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ > > To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: > http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com > ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

> If the government really wanted to do something about the price of gas/diesel > they'd help to get new refinery capacity built... And make impossible to reverse by executive fiat. Here's part of what killed nuclear energy in the US. https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/earth-and-planetary-sciences/nuclear-fuel-reprocessing Key sentence. "In 1977, President Jimmy Carter canceled the licensing of the Barnwell plant, stranding half a billion dollars of private investment. When the reprocessing ban was quietly lifted in 1981 during the Ronald Reagan administration, there was no longer viable commercial interest in reprocessing within the United States." There will be no additional refinery capacity built in the US. It's been killed. There will be no additional pipelines from Canada to the US built. They've been killed. If you expect ANY corporation to invest more than fifty cents in ANY project that can be cancelled by one man, you are dreaming. The US is done. Care to talk politics?

Re: [MBZ] Oh, thank heaven.
The issue isn't the price of crude it's refinery capacity: https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=52718 Exports of refined products are up, probably to support Europe: https://www.freightwaves.com/news/us-exports-even-more-oil-as-domestic-gasoline-diesel-prices-spike If the government really wanted to do something about the price of gas/diesel they'd help to get new refinery capacity built... -Curt On Tuesday, June 21, 2022 at 02:44:43 PM EDT, mitch--- via Mercedes wrote: Nearest Costco was 4.98 for 87UL this AM.

I thought I'd scored on Saturday when I saw diesel for $5.94, then I realized it was "with a carwash".
