Swedish government just passed a bill that will put the price of 100LL
at SEK 18 per litre. That is 3 US$ per litre or about 11 US$/gallon. I
heard that US truck drivers are protesting about gasolin prices in the
range of 3-4 $US/gallon. Get a grip, oil is a limited resource and we
all have to pay (much more) for it to appreciate its real value. And
yes, I am still flying, but for how long...

The problem Lars is the price is artificially inflated to a big degree.
As proof, in the US companies must annually report their profits. Last
year Exxon reported a profit of $4Billion US. Which is the largest profit
of ANY company of ANY product anywhere in the world, including all these
Cartel countries. The problem is one of gouging on the part of certain
companies.
