All you guys keep whining like little babies.....It is going to get worse. I wish diesel (and gas for that matter) wan't as high as it is but I don't complain. I was in Italy in summer of 2000. I drove a nissan turbo diesel minivan the enitre trip. I was paying 2000-2200 lire ($1.00-$1.20) for a LITER of diesel. Let's see......approximately 3 liters to a gallon........that is around $3.00 for a gallon of diesel!!!! About 90% of the vehicles there are diesel. Lighten up fellas...it is not so bad here.
Ask yourself some questions......

How much do you pay for a gallon of milk??
(we have a never ending supply of milk)

how much do you pay for water???
(some people buy bottled water) $1 for a 16 bottle of Evian doesn't sound outrageous

how much do you pay for orange juice??
(we grow alot of oranges in the US)

One more question??????
Bottled water buyers........
Pronounce Evian backwards.
