Gas around here (So. Cal) is $2.25 per gallon; diesel has gone up from its formerly stable (through last summer's price hikes) $1.79 per gallon to $1.99 per gallon now.

Gas is predicted to hit $3.00 per gallon here in the summer, and I imagine diesel will continue to make its way up, but hopefully not nearly as high. On the other hand, biodiesel is a steady $3.00 per gallon, and if petro diesel gets too close to it I won't have that "too expensive" excuse anymore ;-).

What I really want to know is how come I wake up every morning and look out at the ocean and have to stare at oil rigs all up and down the coast, and yet I'm constantly paying at least 30 cents per gallon more for fuel here than people on the East Coast. Grrrrr...
