[AT] possibly OT scrap prices---Wally gas

[David Bruce]

John,
In the Winston-Salem area we sill have spotty supplies - maybe a third 
of the stations are dry at anyone time - apparently it is much worse 
around Charlotte.
Given the nature of the panic buying the other Friday I'm surprised the 
local situation isn't much worse.  There are several local retailers 
facing legal problems under the price fixing law - many of them sold gas 
for more than $5.00/ gallon that day - after starting the day at $3.85/ 
gallon or so.  Of course they were the only stations that had any gas at 
the end of the day.
