    In 1969 it was 18-22¢ a gallon in Houston and in 1973 it was .25¢ a gallon in Charleston, SC.

    Umm just a side comment on the Ether in the carb thing..

    You may not believe this but that starting fluid is almost the worst thing you can do to a motor..Basically rolling grenades down the intake would be worse but not by a lot.. In the diesel world it is used as a last resort for a very cold engine with no ignition system, and it is well known that you can addict a motor to ether (essentialy it wont start without it) because it hammers the rings etc..Anyway justa tip from your old uncle Goose.

    Yeppa Yeppa.. I was trying to get Mudrat to use the flame thrower on the invading bug army last year.. (Alas I think he was stayed by the collateral damage argument.)

    I'm PAINFULLY aware of that assault - and I'm proud to announce the
    "Buggers" have not been back. My asumption is they have abandoned that post (probably because none survived the attack).

    I now have a problem with B1-rds infiltrating the main shop area and attempting to nest. Not a pleasant sight to find a 1.5" round dropped by the B1-rds dead center on my hood

    Same ROE - wood structure impregnated with flamable fluids ....
