You forget, The Great Prognosticator can tell right now they'll be CAT5 hurricanes that will strike every oil rig in the Gulf, shutting down production, then hitting the refineries. Of course, he'll claim it's all of the Republican's fault. If we say he's full of hot air he'll claim we are working for the oil companies to create hurricanes to raise oil prices.
Do not doubt him, he's always right.

Key phrase, "that night." Might have a bit more credibility if you updated the thread title with Tuesday's results, showing oil down to $113 despite the Georgian conflict, BP shutting down pipelines, etc. But it's your thread, do as you wish.
I would agree that the topic is improperly titled... for a thread that is updated nearly daily, you seem to let the title sit stagnant longer than it should when the price isnt climbing.
Here is todays headlines after last night they said prices would soar.
Notice they are not even giving the names of the criminal "Advisers" now.
8-12-2008 Crude oil prices fall a bit Tuesday
NEW YORK, Aug. 12 (UPI) -- Crude oil and gas prices slid lower Tuesday as a major energy adviser said market fundamentals were "easing."
The International Energy Agency Tuesday pointed to "easing fundamentals and potentially higher stocks in the months to come," The Wall Street Journal reported.
The U.S. Department of Energy also lowered its estimate for the 2008 average price of oil to $119.09 per barrel, down 6.5 percent from a previous estimate, the Journal reported.
On the New York Mercantile Exchange, oil prices dropped $1.57 to $113 per barrel. Heating oil fell 0.0418 cents to $3.0817 per gallon. Reformulated blendstock gasoline prices fell 0.0229 cents to $2.8496 per gallon. Natural gas prices fell 0.075 cents to $8.335 per million British thermal units.
The national average retail price of unleaded regular gasoline fell 0.011 cent to $3.799 per gallon, the AAA Daily Fuel Gauge Report said.
I'm going to bed after this one...
So, price at the end of the day Tuesday was $113, down $1.40. So that means that it was $114.40 or so to start the day...
so the article cited for the 8-11 headline says oil was up $1.04 at $116.16. Working the math backwards... Monday oil started around $115... so... in order to start Tuesday at $114.40, it couldnt have gone UP on Monday... could it? According to this: http://www.upi.com/finance/?Page=CHART&Ticker=%24OIL it didnt actually go UP on Monday. IEDIT: I like this chart better: http://www.upi.com/finance/?Pa...STORICAL&Ticker=%24OIL It might have been up at one point, but didnt end there. So "soaring" was probably the exact wrong title for the thread? I mean considering that you linked to a news article from 3:30pm at about 1am the next morning, I can only guess that you just didnt have time to REALLy find out what happened to oil prices on Monday? I could speculate that you are bending news to suit your personal agenda... but we all know you better than that Dave
PS: "Soaring" = $1.04 rise, but "dropped a bit" = $1.40 drop?? I take it back... you are definitely bending the truth to your personal agenda.

That's a lot of hot air
Last I checked oil is still well over $100 and still paying over $40 to fill the tank.

Who gives a shit what you're paying per tank. It's a meaningless measurement.

It's meaningless because you could have a 40gal tank. You could be driving a gas guzzler. You could be using premium. You could be going through your gas at stupid rates. You could be filling it up on E, or on 15/16 of a tank.
It's meaningless because it's a stupid measurement that has no grounding.
I am far from "rich", I don't even own a car. However, I am logical and anybody with half a brain would agree that that measurement is meaningless.
I agree with you, however those arguing with you aren't interested in logic - it's all about fanning the emotional flames of "crisis" at every turn and trying to flip this into some sort of class struggle issue. I guess if I were pushing a socialist/communist agenda I'd be trying to energize people into seeing this as a "rich versus commons" issue as well.

Nice deflection, now back to the point - still waiting for an explanation to this question:
"Soaring" = $1.04 rise, but "dropped a bit" = $1.40 drop??
.. if you have an agenda that's fine, but at least have the spine to admit it. This thread has been a propaganda hack job selective with the facts on the "Inconvenient Truth" order of magnitude. You might want to find that rock and crawl back under before you get a sunburn. You guys are going to run out of crisis' to pimp before the election if facts keep getting in the way like this.
