According to this link here from the Governments Energy Information Administration:

http://tonto.eia.doe.gov/dnav/pet/hist/ddr001M.htm

In April 1994 diesel was $1.10/gal, (14 yrs ago)

In April 1999 diesel was $1.07/gal, (9 yrs ago)

In April 2004 diesel was $1.69/gal, (4 yrs ago)

In April 2008 diesel was $4.08/gal, (current, but lower than what we see in CA)

Geof, has your stock increased 4 times it's value since 1994 like the price of diesel?

If we drive less, will the price of diesel drop in price significantly or are we looking at $4-5/gal and rising forever?
