Sorry. To make you even unhappier, we're mad that we have to pay over $1/gallon now :-) It's funny but we use the same oil companies that you do and they all buy their oil from the same places. Sure, we have some oil fields, but they constitute a small percentage of the total use. Perhaps it's gov't taxes driving up the price ? Here it varies by state by - where I am it's roughly 40 cents/gallon in taxes. Bob
