Shawn, I assume by 395 per gallon you mean 3 Dollar 95 cents? Lucky you, I should move to the USA. We pay 8 Dollar and 79 cents per gallon (converted from Euro to Dollar) here in Germany. Thatīs why I bought a small and economical Daihatsu car for field service. Experts expect the price could climb to the triple within a few years. We should switch over to the practice that the customers bring us their pianos for tuning instead of driving to them :-)<br><br>Gregor<br><br><blockquote><hr>From: shawnbrock@fuse.net<br>To: pianotech@ptg.org<br>Subject: Gas I gasped!<br>Date: Tue, 13 May 2008 23:06:28 -0400<br><br>

<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Anyone about to cry with these gas prices? In
Cincinnati to day gas reached an all new high, 395 per gallon. Just going
into full time University work is really starting to appeal to me. Sure I
would make less but I would pay less taxes and not have to worry about hiring
a driver. Just one of the pit falls for blind technicians... I
moved back to Cincinnati in February when gas was about 1.30 lower than
now. Over the last few weeks the calls have gotten fewer and fewer.
Glad I have got a key bushing job and a regulating job coming in.
Sorry... Just wanted to complain to someone who would know how I
feel.</font></div>
