[quote:ArmchairObserver:MV8yMDA4Nzk2XzMzNzUyNzM5X0YyMDVGQTAw] [quote:Gonviral:MV8yMDA4Nzk2XzMzNzUyNjMzXzEzMTI3OTI5] [quote:Anonymous Coward 12411641:MV8yMDA4Nzk2XzMzNzUyNTI4XzlGOUQyRkI5] Hey...pssst...looks like somebody from California Gas Prices caught on to the shenanigans. There is no more $9.99 a gallon gas price. Breathe people. There are 14 refineries in California. Only two are on the fritz. Hence the cut to the unbranded wholesale distributors. There is no gasogeddon and, if you don't panic, it'll be fine. Yes, the prices will go up..that's a pretty normal response but hey, you'll still be able to get gas. If everybody starts pushing all the stations in California, that might change the tune or at least cause them to raise it even more to fleece you for it. [/quote] is dat jeww...mR. politician? well why dont we make an account here so we can see your not a coward? [/quote] Ms and actually do have an account (tada!). Just don't always bother to log in on it. Not a politician. Just somebody who spent 20+ years of my life in the shady and ruthless oil business. Trust me, it is shady and ruthless. Hated it really. You want to scream about something? Take a few minutes and try to isolate what oil company owns who and who merged with who. People think they are all different companies. They aren't. Honestly, I think that's why they can do things like what they are doing in Cali and get away with it. THAT should make you scream. [/quote]

LONG..LONG LINES!
ON KABC...now..
some stations have closed..
As a result, wholesale prices have jumped nearly 73 cents a gallon over the last week. Experts predict that stations are about to pass on that cost to California drivers this week, and there's nothing drivers can do about it.
According to fuel analysts, we could see a jump of 10 to 30 cents a gallon in a matter of days.
What's causing this price spike? The problem is low production blamed on several oil refinery outages due to the extreme heat and continuing problems from an oil refinery fire in Northern California this summer.
californa doom only!
Bet you outa state peeps are lovin it
