Troubling Times indeed

So I'm listening to the radio a few days ago and hear the "news" or what passes for news. They're busy telling me how I can expect gasoline shortages and prices in the 4-5 dollar a gallon range if Hurrican Rita hits the Texas gulf coast hard.

No news, just a bunch of what if's.

So I call the television station and they say they just want people to understand how bad it could be. I suggest that in the interest of fairness, they also tell us about how good it might also be.

No luck
