Well, while you're cheering away at high gas prices, you can pay for my fuel.
It's odd, after Hurricane Katrina, nearly every car I saw on the road slowed down within a few weeks, presumably as they felt the sudden spike in prices. After it dropped off and a few months went by, I went from being the normal or even slightly faster then average driver back to being the slowpoke. With the recent surges, I haven't seen the same effect again; everyone continues to roar past me to stop at that red light that I always hit green. On the other hand though, I'll admit I'm only doing 1/4 the driving now that I was doing then, but still.
