Yes, I understand that. Rather than being direct, I was indirectly but clumsily responding to Dee's post about decreasing gas prices causing oil rig workers to lose their jobs.
Production continues here in California, despite the drop in prices. However, what happens in the south may indeed be different than what happens in the west.
When I started to research why gas prices go up and down in California and how it ultimately affects us, the consumer; I realized it is a far bigger issue than on the surface of what we pay for gas.
I do apologize for deviating from the intent of the thread, which is "What are you paying for gas right now"!
It is a great thread!
