That is fine if you live somewhere you can walk
Is it illegal to walk where you live?
However, how does this account for it going up in Michigan by 41 cents yet down in Georgia by 41 cents?
Strange because I am in LA and noticed gas under $4 for the first time in months earlier this week. On a side note I just read a letter that was given to me that my great grandfather wrote back in the 30's saying how gas was 7 gallons for $1!

Actually a few weeks ago it was 4.29 here and it has slowly sank down to 3.78. All so called "gains" in lower prices are pretty much gone. It took one day to get nearly back to the price it took nearly 3 weeks to drop.

No here, but some days my drive is the equivalent of 4 marathons

Really people need to look in the mirror and see what part of the problem is. While there are many factors affecting gas prices, demand is one of those. If everyone has to drive everywhere, the cost goes up. Laziness is not free.
I ride a bicycle all year round in central Texas. Which sadly is extremely rare now days here except among recent immigrants. For the rest of the healthy adults it's always too hot, too cold, to far, too slow etc etc no matter how far the distance. Instead they whine about the cost of gas, car payments and car repairs.
