Remember When Gas was $3

Here it is the summer of 2025 and I remember way back in 2005, when that storm Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast in August. It was a month of so after the oil companies reported record profits and the Iraq ("you're either with us or against us") war was still piling up bodies. Just before that storm gasoline was licking at the $2.75 mark but afterwards it shot up a good quarter. That was the last time I ever saw gas below 3 bucks. Of course now with gas holding steady at the $7.50 mark it just seems quaint!
