Why did it go up to $70+ in the first place? Not like there is any demand for the stuff thanks to a global market recession. I read somewhere that there is a glut of diesel now (cant remember where I read it), yet I am not seeing any significant savings at the pumps.

Seems to me when the prices of barrel goes up, the pump prices rise accordingly. But when the barrel price drops, the pump prices don't hit the same lows. Someone is making big profits.

Bring on Hydrogen cell cars anyday. Its time we become less dependant on the black gold. (swear word).. OPEC!!!

cheers

Absolutely! We here at USC just entered into an agreement with BMW for some our faculty members to test drive the new Hydrogen powered 7-Series...the technology and concept are awesome!
