Quote:
it appears one of the main reasons diesel costs more than pump gas today is that there are less refineries making this sort of fuel than there are making gasoline.
Once you realize that 3 billion people have rather suddenly gotten access to diesel engines it starts to make sense. The conversion to vehicular travel has really come on like flicking a light switch in China and India and when you see a figure like 3% more intake you have to balance that with their enormous population base. The US is only about 10% as populous as those two countries making a 3% increase by them equivalent to a 30% increase consumption rise for us. It's actually more than a little scary, to be honest.
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Herm Albright (1876 - 1944)
