So, the media is all about four dollar a gallon gas. Talk about behind the times — there’s an article in the Washington Post today talking about $4 a gallon and how it is changing behavior, but the AP photo (by Mark J. Terrill) accompanying the article tells us that they’re way behind in their reporting.
I was too optimistic with my prediction of $5 gas by July 4. I should have said “By Tuesday.” That photo was taken in Arcadia, California.
This afternoon it occurred to me that I should have been graphing gas prices here in my neighborhood all along; I love making little graphs. I’m geeky that way. Anyway, here’s a graph of the price of high-test (do people still use that term?) at the gas station on the corner over the last two weeks, based on my Twitter complaints as I drive by.
I know I’m preaching to the choir and we’re all witnessing this phenomenon; it’s just an excuse to create a spreadsheet, that’s all.
