Maybe its just me and maybe its just here in CT, but I've noticed a trend here that hasn't failed in at least 5 years. Whenever diesel starts to rise in price it does so before gasoline. It reaches and sometimes exceeds the price of regular unleaded. Then it roughly stabilizes and gasoline starts going up. After diesel starts falling, gasoline soon follows. Personally, I wish the feds would add $1/gallon tax in conjunction with a flat tax credit for all taxpayers. I've always been very fiscally conservative, but our energy policy essentially ceases to exist. Savings associated with lower consumption would be many, economic, political, environmental
