[Magdalen] gas prices?

[James Oppenheimer]

Two dollars a gallon would have had people screaming back when I was in
grad school. One station put his price up to 99,9 on New Year's Eve and
they took away his franchise

This is a meaningless blip in the ever rising price of all petro-products.
As the scarcity pushes the prices up, we'll find new technology then.  Too
bad, but it is what it is.
