I also heard the price per gallon that would have an impact on our society's fuel consumption was $2.00, then I heard $2.35, and now they are saying $3.00. It was interesting, they expected a huge jump in mass transit riders, but I know in the bay area, they saw an increase of .5-1% depending on what form of transportation.

Im not sure that we will ever really get it.
