    Well m'dear since those oil refining facilities have just gone out during Harvey maybe it's gonna take a few days for the impact to hit. Do you drive a lot Ele? Long distances? I imagine it's really rough on folks who live far away from work or those who travel by car like salespeople. Thank you for your reply and Happy Tuesday! :)

    How can that be? I thought all these electric cars now on the road would have lifted some of that load on the nation's oil refineries. 

    Or maybe we could build a new refinery or two, or even re-open that big one that was shut down a couple of decades ago in Puerto Rico. No?
