Oil Up

And I just filled up too, paid $2.999 per gallon. Oil just hit a new high.

Light, sweet crude for April delivery rose $2.95 to settle at a record $102.59 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Prices continued rising after the Nymex closed, setting a new trading record of $103.05 in Asian electronic trading before slipping back to $102.92.

Imagine tomorrow it will be over $3 per gallon. Wonder when people will start to change their driving habits. Or vehicles, lots of Hummers, Suburbans, big trucks, vans out there.
