"An easy conservation move is simply to slow down. I'm driving
55--being passed........."

I completely agree. But why is it that if I even suggest it to anyone
they can't even understand the need for it. Either the supply has to
increase or the demand reduced to bring the price down - and neither is
happening. In that case only alternative is to raise the price.

At least fuel is still available. Price control etc would just make it
disappear from the market. Thank goodness no one is talking that -
except in Hawaii.
