Betcha didn't know that retail gasoline prices are based on a temperature of 60 degrees F. Since the volume of gas expands in heat, the hotter its gets the more you're paying for less gas. Swell, huh? More here.
Here's a sampling of what folks are paying for a gallon of gasoline across the pond: Netherlands ($9.84), Belgium ($9.20), Germany and Italy ($8.93), France ($8.80) and United Kingdom ($8.74). Feel better? I didn't think so.Hat tip to The Crone Speaks / Photo by AP
If only we had the national public transportation infrastructure that those EU countries have. sigh.
