[AT] OT: Gas story

[RonMyers at wildblue.net]

George,
The temperature at the point where the underground tanks are stored is on
average 55 deg.  No matter what part of the country that you live in.
North south east or west . this is set by the government regulations. so
it really doesn't matter where you get it from.
In almost all states the meters on the pumps are tested to guarantee their
accuracy so this whole bunch of Bull is just that a bunch of Bull.
You a full gallon of gas at each station or the government will come down
hard on the owners.
