Ah, yeah. All the people talking about it all the time aren't really
concerned.

Sure they are talking about it. But when push comes to shove they still
drive the same way they did when gas was 1.50/gal.

No they don't. For instance: General aviation. Pretty soon, only the
wealthy will be able to afford it. That will hurt the folks making $25,000
teaching them to fly, and the businesses that are struggling to make ends
meet, but it sure won't hurt the super wealthy.

At 10gph, I'd fly a hell of a lot more if fuel was 1.50/gallon. To me this
seems abundantly obvious.

I too am a pilot. Aviation, even in the US, has it's challenges.
Fuel price is only one of many. We would be better off if we could
get rid of the LL and use only autogas. That alone would lower the
price appreciably.
