Very good info Ray. I know the people where I live (Ont. gas $5.00 gal.) are walking more, buying bicycles, car pooling, making fewer trips into larger cities to shop, taking local vacations, buying electric scooters and motorbikes, moving closer to their work. We are fighting back and I don't think it will change even if gas prices go down. Of course, all the food, etc. is going up because of delivery costs. Truckers and Merchants will have to figure that one out. I had a friend many years ago with bad Arthritis and he said they likely could cure it but look at all the money the pill makers, Doctors, etc. would be out. It is not only the cost but also the environment that people have to save and we must all do our part.
