Thanks folks. Ran across this site and been lurking for about a month. Finally decided to register and when I saw this post I couldn't help but add my $0.02 worth.

I think a large part of the reason why gas isn't going down is because America (for the most part) hasn't slowed down or shown any desire too. We're spoiled rotten and want what we want when we want it. Granted this doesn't apply to everyone but to enough people.

And personally, I think the only people who are going to suffer for stopping are the people who are stopping. The large trucking companies aren't going to allow their drivers to stop/slow down to the level that it would make an impact.

Besides (in the attitude of major Americans) why should oil companies sacrifice their profits just to satisfy the minority? (I don't agree with that but .... who am I?)
