I worked in a gas station in high school in 1971 and remember gas being 28
(up to about 31) cents a gallon.

Heh. I worked in a gas station in 1979-80, when gas first busted a buck a
gallon in the Milwaukee, WI area.

You'd have thought I was the anti-Christ, working behind that counter. It
was as if every person filling their tank had determined that *I* was
PERSONALLY responsible for the price of gasoline...

I don't envy the folks in gas stations nowadays, after the price surpassed
TWO bucks a gallon. Of course, everything is pay-at-the-pump now, so I
suppose they're getting off a bit easier...
