Y'all missing OP's point here: This isn't a gas price survey--and I
doubt Herb really gives a shit about Californians' suffering--it's
just (yet another) underhanded dig at California (note he shows no
concerns for Canadians, who have been paying even higher prices for
decades, and they can only buy liters, which are smaller than
gallons). Gas prices are generally higher in the East and West
Coasts and, as others have noted $7.50/gal is an outlier that
happens on occasion and usually at more remote locations (there's a
station on Highway 1 way north of SF that gets in the news with
extreme pricing; it's a slog to get tankers up there).<br>
<br>
We 'from California' may grumble a bit but, for the most part we are
delighted at the visible improvement in our air quality over the
last few decades. Having spent my entire 70+ years in CA I can vouch
for its improved cleanliness and breathe-ability (sorry,
Bakersfield) and, since I generally like to breathe I appreciate it.
We Californians find ways to deal with inconveniences; many have
'gone electric,' the rest of us just try to make the best use of
whatever petroleum products we need to use. Note I have 4 cars (2
Healeys), a pickup, two old farm tractors, a JD Gator, a zero-turn,
rototiller, edger and 3 2-stroke chainsaws, which will be banned in
a couple years but I can all but build one from scratch from readily
available parts online. We used to burn our orchard trimmings, which
severely impacted air quality in the Central Valley, but most now
pay more to have them chipped and hauled off, even though burning is
still allowed (we Californians are kinda goofy, to be sure).<br>
<br>
We do appreciate your concern, Herb. Now, if I could just get
93-octane for my Mustang ...<br>
