So that's my problem. Damn...I need to lose some weight then

The one thing no one has pointed out is the reduced amount of refinery production in the last 10+ years. There is sufficient supplies of oil coming into the country, but because of refineries closing and/or not being run, the supply of usable fuels has dropped. Part of Big Oil's profits come from the fact they have less maintenance and labor to pay for in regards to their refineries. And from what we saw from Katrina, a 1% drop in refinery production can wreak havoc.
