What's Up At The Pumps?

I was just reviewing some of my previous posts.
September 1 - when everyone was freaking because of gas prices...

Well, yesterday i filled up at $2.55 again. Prices are back to the same place they were before the hurricane. However, i must admit, that there seems to still be some sort of shortage. When is the country/world going to wake up to the fact that oil is a limited commodity, just like the rest of the natural resources? Really, even magicians and alchemists haven't been able to transmute energy into gold...or oil. And, even if they could, i bet they wouldn't.
