deisel prices went up, shipping charges went up on feed, shipping charges
went up on hauling steers to slaughter then to market, hence the price of
meat has gone up to pay all those shipping charges due to the increase in
deisel fuels.

Truck drivers pay fuel surcharges in every state they travel thru. They pay
more for deisel fuel than we pay for cheap unleaded.

Have you noticed that toilet paper costs more as well? It's only going to
get worse at the market, because while gasoline may be coming down in price,
deisel is still up where it was weeks ago. This is the fuel with the least
amount of processing, yet Pa-Oil seems to think it should cost more?!?! I
wonder why (rhetorical)

so here's my twist as to why things are costing more, which may actually be
worth 2 cents of fuel <g>
