My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
I'm not sure how much petrol costs at our local petrol station, but the UK average is:
96.13 pence per litre for petrol
98.81 pence per litre for diesel
Which converts to:
$6.64 a gallon (US) for petrol
$6.83 a gallon (US) for diesel

12,24 sek/liter for regular (95 octane)
11,34 sek/liter for diesel
12,54 sek/liter for what I'm guessing is premenum (98 octane)
That's 6,25$/gallon for regular
5,79$/gallon for diesel
and 6,40$/gallon for premenum.

We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?

I really don't know why you Yanks are moaning about you're "ludicrously high" petrol (not gas, gas is different) prices. You have it half of the price of the rest of the world, so shut your trap holes and get used to it.
Southern California:
Regular: $3.55 (84 octane)
Premium: $3.79 (92 octane)
Diesel: $3.10
(local distributors say we pay extra for Cali's "cleaner" fuels). Cost has been increasing 5-10% per week. Many predict $6 per gallon by June.
Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.
not sure the exact costs, but its bloody expensive here, living off the UK mainland we have to pay extra, After visiting the US this september i never want to hear you lot complain about oil prices again. the UK is alot higher
When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown,
The dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb...

When is the U.S going to use Ethanol? The Brizillians seem to be having great success with it.![]()
Brazillians had success with it becuase they have a smaller country and a warmer climate. It would require huge amounts of land being devoted to growing plants/trees to get the sugar from. We really can't use pure ethanol in most of the US becuase it gets so cold, below 35F ethanol wont ignite, in some parts of the Northern US ethanol would gelly in the winter. We can eventually get to using E85 though, but it will take some time and gas stations to actually start caring it. Remember it took the Brazillians nearly 30 years to get where they are now, and they have far far fewer cars.Originally Posted by Alexanderofmacedon

The US is trying to use ethanol right now. Only problem is, the US isn't as good as Brazil making it, and there's a large import tariff because the Gov't is pandering to the Iowa ethanol growers.Originally Posted by Alexanderofmacedon
And how much of that increased cost is due to loads of taxes? Just cause you guys rolled over for high taxes doesn't mean we can't complain since we haven't yet let our public servants become our public masters.I really don't know why you Yanks are moaning about you're "ludicrously high" petrol (not gas, gas is different) prices.

Very true. I'm still lost as to why they want to use wood chips or corn to make ethanol. Sugar cane/sugar beats are by far more effective at producing ethanol. But still the point of using ethanol is to become energy selfsufficient so why would we want to trade one import for another?The US is trying to use ethanol right now.

Southern California *mumbles*
About $3.25 per gallon here in La Mesa today.
I figure for an SUV owner, it's equivilent to $6.50, since I get twice the fuel mileage in my small Mazda pickup and Toyota Corolla.
My wife pretty much has to drive to work, due to San Diego's awful mass transit system. I can take the train, however. I love it!

3.10 USD the next thing above regular
3.20 USD premium I THINK.
