Why do you think that? I mean, I'm not saying you're lying, but--holy shit if true.
Does it have to do with this? Because that's pretty big news.

Someone in another country, please let me come stay with you. I will do the dishes and pay rent.

From the NY Times this morning. The Price Per Barrel is climbing because of Hurricane Ike forcing shutdowns.
--- Quote from: The Times --- Gasoline prices in the United States had been falling, too, but they have reversed course and begun to rise as the disruptions have caused gasoline supplies to tighten. Regular unleaded gasoline stands at $3.67 a gallon on average, according to the automobile club AAA, up more than a penny in two days.
Much sharper price spikes could be on the way, at least in some regions. Wholesale gasoline prices on the Gulf Coast soared to more than $4 a gallon on Thursday morning, up more than 70 cents from the day before, according to Tom Kloza, chief oil analyst of the Oil Price Information Service.
“The market is in panic mode,” Mr. Kloza said. “The oddity here is I would not be surprised to see oil at $99 and retail gasoline above $4.”
