The refineries converting oil to gas may be demolished. Interesting only 12 are in the path of this storm!
Gas companys should have insurance and this is really gouging at the very least!
Makes alot of sense to have refinerys near shore! It would make to much sense to Build new ones inland.

Gas nowdays is only good for about 2 to 4 weeks before it starts to turn to something like varnish. The landfills are full of weedeaters and lawnmowers that wouldn't start because the gas in them got "old". Stabil or Seafoam helps

Is it time to go home yet
I remember during the gas crunch in the 70's my dad kept a 50 gallon drum filled with gas in the backyard.

free at last.......
Funny how every little thing causes gas to go up. I guess we didn't have hurricanes 20-30 years ago.
I've got an idea..........let's do some more off-shore drilling so when these storms hit there will be more platforms to damage. And should we get a season with no hurricanes, what will be the excuse then? CEO of Exxon got a hangnail? That ought to be good for about $.20/gal.
We're being played and there is nothing we can do about it. At least not until our government acts in our best interest and not the oil companies. Heck, when gas was .25/gal, they used to fill your tank for you, clean the windshield and check the oil.

I can recall the "odd/even" system that they used, the long lines and the fights.
We had a radio station locally which ran a gas promotion in which they took $1 off the price per gallon. However, that was only for 1 hour and there was a 20 gallon limit. I guess they had quite a mess on their hands. People were in line, some overnight, just to save $20. As SX said, stay home, relax, have a beer.
$2/gallon gas is a distant memory. Will $3/gallon become the same?

Our President Mr. Oil Man was on this morning assuring the nation they will be keeping an eye on price gauging. Did he mean now during the storm or the last several years?

He is simply trying to ensure that his post-Presidential oil residual income is secure.

I keep a stash of about 60 gallons in 5 gal. cans in a shed in my backyard. I have used this gas after storing it for 18 months and it was just fine. As long as the gas is stored in an airtight container it will not collect moisture.
I also have an old truck that sits for weeks or months at a time without being driven, and in 6 years I have never had a problem with the gas in it turning to varnish. It has 2 tanks and I keep them both full to prevent moisture from condensing in the tank.
