how would a gas strike help capn or bobblehead? if everyone in the usa filled up their vehicles on monday and drove till friday night then filled the vehicles on saturday morning what would be the difference. the only thing that would happen would be the demand for fuel on saturday would drive the market up. its called supply and demand. there really isnt any demand right now so the market price is being driven by speculation not lack of the available fuel.

What a bunch of scam artists..............................
We were in OTTAWA this morning at 10:45 AM and stopped at the BP on the South side of town gas was $3.48 it was a good price considering.
We were leaving OTTAWA and went by the same BP at 12:15 or there about and gas went up to $3.69 why other than they can I guess.
I like to by gas a Palkos here in town and checked out there price today $3.86 0r $3.89 even that is a big difference from $3.69. WTH
