<Again Goldsnow, you provide an example of public market failure in that the govt has mandated that MTBE be phased out and the new formulation, patented by Unocal, utilized.> No, no, no... if the "new gas" is a better product, then the man hours taken to create it are 'more productive' and you're beloved productivity numbers will be higher! <Nothing different than if a refinery catches fire or shut down. > Oh, and that doesn't cause prices to be higher?? <I wish you wouldn't fixate on temporary fluctuations in the energy sector the way you do. > Why don't you let AG tell him that... it would have more credibility, something that you are lacking at the moment.
