Sounds like someone is looking to severely restrict movement. Airport closings, trucking restrictions, gas rationing and unchecked gouging and just plain old station closings.
W-T-F!?

i asked yesterday "will there be rationing?"

someone answered "probably not"

there it is.

Talk show person larry elder had someone write in to him stating that very thing. Larry just said that this was tantamount to marxism.

WTFE is what I say.

gas jumped 15 cents yesterday, and a 10 gallon limit.
location: washington state.

..food stamps comin´ your way..

Anyone have any info. about impending gas rationing?

does it matter? when you pull up to the pump, you´ll have all the info you need.

ac I live in the NE where things are not quite desperate yet save for just hourly price increases. Wnated to see if anyone had sources reporting planned rationing.

Should read "save for hourly price increases" Nothing "just" with any of it.

Next phase is...

Rolling Blackouts

Expect it

There probably will be rationing. Weren´t any of you alive back in the 70´s?

Sigh, yes alive and well during the 70´s. I recall the alternating gas stations (red flags green flags) and odd and even lic. plates in the NE but no official rationing. I´m sure it´s coming and to an extent here. I´m looking for info.(pref credible) indicating it specifically.

Credible evidence would be "truckers limited to $50 fuel at major truck stops" and the fact that there are long lines at the gas stations and many gas stations have run out of gas.

I saw a gas station here in Houston at a very busy intersection about two weeks ago (before the storm) which was out of gas. It was one of those things that make you go hmmmm. I wondered whether the wholesale price on gasoline was raised to where they could not afford to buy the stuff and make a living too, or if they simply ran out. The convenience store part of the station was still open. It was just really weird to see all 16 pumps with bags on the hoses.

in the words of the marin commander from the movie Aliens "it´s game time". hope you are all padded up and ready to play.

Hey folks look at the real ramifications of this if it continues-FOOD SHORTAGES!!!!!!

Stock up NOW!!!!!!!!!

PNW and gas went up 11cents since yesterday.

Yeah I know
That my world is coming down
Yeah I know
I know
I´m the one who brought it down
Brought it down
Bring it on down

How quickly pass the days long is the night
Lying in bed awake bathed in starlight
Better to live as king of beasts
Than as a lamb scared and weak

I will deny my role as a human
Holding myself hostage with no demands
It´s better to burn (to burn) quickly and bright
Than slowly and dull (and dull) without a fight

Well I know
That my world is coming down
Now I know
I know
I´m the one that brought it down
Brought it down
Yeah, Bring it on down

omega,
reading your posts makes me really wonder how old you are and what your purpose is on this board other than to raise fear and panic. childish.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
do people understand the gulf got hit by a horribly large hurricane? do you realize there are 4 million being affected by this (if not more)? do you bother to thank those working to get power restored? do you bother to thank those working long hours to get the pipelines working? refineries back up? geez...it´s me, me, me. try looking outside yourself and limit your traveling, don´t top off your tank...don´t panic buy anything!

oh yeah, i forgot...there is not a shortage...this is a tight squeeze. i will post again for those who haven´t seen...

Colonial pipeline services the South and Southeast US...

press release
COLONIAL RESTART SUCCESSFUL, CAPACITY SCHEDULED TO INCREASE

September 1, 2005

Colonial Pipeline has successfully completed restart of Main Lines 1 and 2 and safely resumed partial service around 6:00 p.m. Wednesday, August 31, 2005. Original estimates of 25% to 35% of normal operational capacity for initial return to service have been exceeded, and Colonial is now operating at about 40% capacity.


With the return to service of additional electrical power in Mississippi later today, Colonial anticipates that it will be able to operate at approximately 61% of normal capacity by the end of today (Thursday, 9/1/05.) Both gasoline and distillates are currently being transported and delivered.


"As always, our first concerns are for protection of people and our environment. With this in mind, we continue to work closely with the electric utilities as they re-establish service in Mississippi," stated David Lemmon, President and CEO of Colonial. "The devastation from Hurricane Katrina is tremendous, and I commend the men and women who are working diligently to restore the energy that we need and rely on."


With additional restoration of electrical service as well as connection of distributed generation equipment currently en route to Mississippi, Colonial anticipates that it will be able to achieve approximately 74% of normal operating capacity by Sunday, and 75% to 86% by early or mid-next week.


Colonial Pipeline, headquartered in Alpharetta, Ga., delivers a daily average of 100 million gallons of gasoline, home heating oil, aviation fuel and other refined petroleum products to communities and businesses throughout South and the Eastern United States. Colonial consists of more than 5,500 miles of pipeline, originating at Houston, Texas, and terminating at the New York harbor.

Son just called and said they are directing traffic at Sams Warehouse. Said traffic is so backed up they have got cops directing because people are lined up at the gas pumps.

A lie.

All of Mississippi south of Interstate 20 is without electric power.

Just confirmed with brother, semi-truck driver, that the limits are 50 gallons, not $50, but still same problem.

Currently seems to be from Mississippi line over to east coast.

salimandr has a hidden fear he´s not sharing with us....Why take the time with such disinfo on a forum that will not affect the gas supplies? Seems a little odd---I mean, this is a "speculation" forum....this isn´t CNN. Hmmmm..
