Exactly!  Their target price will result in gasoline costing in the $2.50 - 
3.00 range so I would use that for budgetary purposes.  If oil prices remain 
this low until next spring you can be sure OPEC will do something about it.

I don't mean to brag but St. Louis has some of the lowest prices around.  I 
have been filling the tank for $12 - 15.  I filled up today for $1.45/G.  At 
these prices, those who are still buying autos are buying SUV's again.
