Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Illinois speed traps

[Stephen Sherman (sherman]

1.When the Oil companies use the leases they have I would support off shore 
but not until then.
2. Don't expect American Oil not to sell on the open market.
3. Think about it:If your raw materials have gone up and your product has 
gone up and you are selling less of your product AND you HAVE RECORD PROFITS 
would you increase your supply
of raw materials or build more factories so you produce more product and 
make less profit.

Don't think so.

I was in line at a fast food establishment after Katrina and was talking to 
an oil man about the $3
gasoline and he said 'I did not see you complain when I was getting $10 a 
barrel for my oil.

And remember these are the good days. I am 64 and I expect to see $10 a 
gallon b4 I check out.
