$4.759 diesel - special low sulphur

$4.759/gallon - up from $4.309/gallon 8 weeks ago. Unleaded regular is $4.009/gallon. Another price increase and I won't be able to buy 15 gallons on one $74.00 maximum fuel purchase :-(

We pay a lot extra here for our "low sulphur" diesel, now if we could just fix the volcano...

- Halema'uma'u is currently emitting 1,400 tonnes/day or 511,000 tonnes/year of SO2. Total US for all sources in 2000 was 11,202,110 and is expected to go down to 8,700,000 by 2010. When the winds are bad, the sky and the burning in my lungs reminds me of Beijing (and that isn't good).
