Re: Countdown to $200 oil (3) - no gas tax needed (4.00 / 3)

Reminds me of a scene in the documentary Vernon, Florida (possibly the best flim ever) in which they interview a preacher who says, "I needed a van, so I prayed to God for van. Then I went and priced vans. I guess God was trying to tell me it wasn't the right time to buy a van..." LOL.

Sounds about right for Vernon. Never been, but I've heard stories.
