Taking Your Gas Temperature

Posted on July 10, 2008 in News/Updates

This article from today’s ExecutiveBiz struck me, so I had to pass it on.

“Do you think you are being gauged at the gas-pump—or do you brag about how little you pay compared to a friend who lives across the state-line? Now there’s an online color-coded heat map where you can see who pays an arm or a leg or who has to shell out both limbs for a gallon of Gas in the USA. You can zoom in for details.”

Yeah… I live in the darkest red zone. This is why I metro to work. On that note… who can tell me why all the tourists… (I’m not hating you – I love that you come to see my great city!) why do you choose to also ride the metro during commuters rush hour??
