Major explosion in a texas oil refinery in Texas City, Texas. Considering the lack of refining capacity we have to begin with, this isnt going to be good for gas prices. jdn

Mike,
The big money isn't doing it so far.

This afternoon the US Army announced they are going to miss their recruiting goal again this month.

No Numbers were released...We will probably get them a few days into next month.

The statement says they are going to try new recruiting tactics. Gotta do something...My guess is the Army reports between 490,00-495,000. That will mean a shortage of 37,000-42,000 men and rising.
