gasoline prices

[ZTAngel]

I had 1/2 a tank last night but filled up because I knew gas prices were just going to go up, up, up over Memorial Day weekend. I paid $3.85 a gallon. I'm still in shock that it's gotten this expensive.

Have you all noticed that traffic is lighter now? I've noticed that my commute to work isn't as treacherous. My dad was telling me that he did the drive from Ft. Lauderdale to West Palm on I-95 a few days ago during rush hour, which is usually bumper to bumper, and he said it was almost like a ghost town. Also, a couple of people at my work who work in HR and Administration were mentioning that MARTA usage at my work (MARTA is Atlanta's subway/train) increased by 15% just in the last month!

Can either one of you detail just what you mean?
Gas is gas. It is cross-sold by the companies all the time.
