Jim, the only thing else I am going to add to this debate. Yes, I am well aware of the conversion rate, and that the UK/ EU is paying more for petro than we are. However, if you take into consideration that we were paying around 2 USD per gallon in 2004 the same basic increase that is hitting you, is hitting us. Its approx. a 50% increase in the past 4 years.
I noticed that you mentioned that you have no vehicle. I am curious, why do you have a dog in this fight? I own both a truck, and a car. I average nearly 30 miles per day round trip for work alone. I should be the one making the louder argument, but I am not.
