Tom,
    All I can say from the above statement is WOW!!! I suppose you would love 
to be on the committee to decide what I should pay for gasoline. Thanks, but 
I'm not looking for any help nor favors. Where were you back in January of 
99' when all of the oil related stocks were in the toilet? I, unlike you, 
trust the consumer to decide when how much is enough. Let's see, oil has gone 
from $10.00/barrel to $30.00/barrel but gasoline has gone from about a $1.00 
-- $1.65. Consider yourself lucky - Lenny

PS - Mind telling me what you do for a living? Just in case I want to FORCE 
you to change your profit margin. As you state so eloquently, bottom line is 
how much is enough?
