>>>What are gas prices in your neck of the woods. Here the last couple days I've seen from 3.17 to about 3.33/gallon. I've heard it could be 4.00 per. up north in SF.

>>For comparison, here in Bolivia gasolene has been costing a little less than half a US$ per LITER for quite a while now. However, many people here - including me - hardly buy gasolene any more, only gas (as in: "a gaseous stuff"), which is kept in pressure tanks at up to 200 bar. The cost per km. is about 1/3 of the cost of gasolene.

>I keep forgetting that I always wondered why is gas (the gas) not used for anything else but camping and barbecue here? Back home there were a lot of cars with pressurized bottles in their trunks, and whatever vaporizer, switch etc was necessary. Even though the gas (gas gas) pumps were few and far between, a lot of people had those. Here, I haven't even heard it mentioned anywhere. Is there a law against that?


No, just a really powerful oil lobby.
