Gas pricing comes home to roost

[The Balakrishnans]

I guess the big oil companies are all trying to hold the line.   I work for
BP, and the costs have not gone up much in BP stations here in the
Chicagoland area.  Perhaps thr gouging occurred in stations owned not by the
companeis but by independent jobbers.
