Coincidental ? Probably coincidental this time, but shouldn't we
keep it that way?

Beyond cynical . . . jaded.

Anyway, there's a single reason why the price of oil is low . . . GM
invested all it's development money on four (4) new SUVs.  It's a

The price will fall below $2/gal before Thanksgiving, giving
incentives for the idoicy to buy GM's new rolling monsters.  Then oil
will continue it's continuous path.  Ignore the discontinuity.

PS GM and Fnord will merge.  Is the name "American Motors" still
available?  <eg>
