I hadn't noticed gas prices being high.  Is this just a recent spike, or what?

As a point of history:  Our last server clear was on September 27, 2004.  That is 4963 days ago (13.6 years) as of today.

If your character is from after the 2004 clear but appears to have been deleted or reset, chances are it was caught in one of the inactive account purges over the years.  Backups were made before such events, so try the support form.

You do know that our fossil fuel prices are by the litre, not gallon, right?

Actually now, oil prices have begun to drop per barrel.  Today on NPR, they announced that (im estimating) oil price per barrel dropped about $1.20.

Fusor, if you gas up in Canada and you claim it's $.80CAD per Liter, then that is way higher than $1.70US per Gallon(US).

1 Gallon (US) equals 3.79 Liters and costs $1.70US per Gallon to $.80CAD per Liter of fuel.

1 CAD = 0.68 USD
So to fill 1 Gallon of fuel with Canadian dollars would be 3.03$CAD which in turn comes out to $2.04US.

So to conclude, your payment comes to $2.04US per Gallon as to $1.70US per gallon where Crash lives.

Gotta love SBC with their 6Mbps tier for 45$
(Yes, on their site it only shows 3Mbps, but it is actually 6Mbps, I would know :)).

Well we get the right to skew'd trials and innocents go to jail while guilty people live in Santa Monica off stolen money.
