Still $3.39/gallon in Topeka. Still a royal ripoff, but not as bad as what you're seeing.

People are stupid enough that it doesn't matter. A car dealer I know is feeling much better now that stupid people are buying gas guzzlers again since gas is only 50 cents/gallon more than it was earlier this year.
