Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

$3+/litre... that woks out to $13 - $14 /gallon in the old metric.

It wasn't that long ago that we were converting cars to run on LPG. Then the price of LPG went up so much that everyone stopped buying it and the service stations stopped selling it.
In the USA they are complaining that petrol is $4 a gallon. I know that their gallons are smaller than ours were but still it seems they are getting off very lightly.
