[AT] Fuel prices

[John Hall]

Gas is $1.60 here with reports that it is down to $1.39 in eastern NC 
(Wilson co.) Got filled up with propane yesterday $2.54.

 Funny observation about human nature--heard someone talking about paying 
$1.70 for gas when they could get it for a nickel less down the road. 
Three/four months ago every station here was $4-$4.25.


As far as fertilizer goes, I'm hearing nitrogen is/has been dropping--the 
other 2 are what is running the price sky high. I buy straight from the 
processor. When he complained about the price of  the ingredients he was 
told to "pay up and shut up" as they had plenty of places bigger than him 
willing to pay their price. At any rate, my wheat fertilizer bill more than 
doubled from last year.
