Let me see...I'm entering a trance...prices will go down...and then up...and then...again down, and later on...later on...up

Just kidding. The only thing for sure is that gas prices don't ever go down and stay there to create a lower baseline price. I paid 69 cents a gallon for leaded (!) gas in 1989. Hey, that's what my engine took to lube the top end, and the stations were getting rid of it. Then it was a buck 10 for unleaded, and ten bucks for a can of tetra-ethyl lead every month. Then a buck 50. Buck 75. Two twenty. Never did go back down and stay there. Then you couldn't get the damn lead anymore, used to sell it suspended in kerosene so it wouldn't harm you if you were the spilly type. Them days is all gone, enjoy it while you can
