“We have the slow bleed that is occurring now thanks to the massive drops in crude oil and slightly less impressive drops in gasoline last week in the world markets,” Kloza said. “If high water doesn’t knock out any refinery capacity, we could see gasoline drop another 20 to 40 cents per gallon or so, once plants are restored and fear is in the rear view mirror.”
from here

and Sam, what i mean by oil doing something is the price of a barrel must come down. oil drives the economy. the oil companies are getting phat while we, the consumer are starving. i've had to go back to ramen noodles at work. why? because it costs me $20 round trip to drive to work and home. 5 days a week? $100. try that at $10 bucks an hour. it truly sucks. back in the day when i made $40 an hour i wouldn't have let it bother me so much. but when, now, after paying my bills i have no more than $30 to my name on payday......
