I get a kick out of people who rush out and stock up on gas they won't
be using for a while. They are paying premium prices for a product that
is likely to be back down in price before they need it. They waste a lot
of time and gas sitting there idling while they wait to get their gas,
and then probably spill a lot of it. It is a big time money loser. Stay
home and conserve your fuel.
