<<the joker here is those refinery problems>>

Could well be. Here in PHX plus what I have read coming from sources in CA ... all blame the gas pump price increase on refinery problems. The writers remain oblivious to what has happened to the price of oil.

Sure the refinery problems have accounted for much of the sudden spike, but the underlying trend which was showing up at the pumps during the two weeks prior to the refinery problems, is unmentioned.
