    Yeah, it's like 40-some cents per gallon in Saudi Arabia too.

    At least we're not paying the $9/gallon Europe is getting slammed with right now. That said, I think this is all bullshit. We really need to push forward the development of alternative fuel sources. It's too bad my flatulence couldn't power my car, because today I'd be able to drive around the world!
