Cheryl, This quote is from my local newspaper. "The problem is one in a continuing series of problems," Jay McKeeeman, executive vice president of the California Independent Oil Marketers Association said. "California is a huge petroleum consumer entity, (buying) 13 billion gallons of gasoline a year. It needs a lot of refining capacity to meet that demand. Anytime there is a glitch in the system you get a problem." California gasoline prices jump on refinery woes 02:36 p.m Mar 26, 1999 Eastern infoseek.go.com

Cheryl - Two years ago I thought this problem could be solved. I don't anymore. I gave up "trying to educate and save the world". I'm tired of being laughed at. My energy is better spent elsewhere. Probably the strongest emotion I have with this whole Y2K mess, is an overwhelming sense of sadness. Big DITTO there. Basically came down to a small minority got it on the first go around... the rest are largely still in denial. Sadness, anger, frustration... load it up. Bummer. - David
