>>We were in Los Angeles a few days ago. At about 3:30 PM we filled the tank to prepare for our return trip home. As we paid the attendant, another employee increased the price by 10 cents a gallon. Man - talk about dynamic! I guess it was about to be rush hour and time to jack up the price? :)

>No, they need money to buy their next batch of gas which probably went up by $0.05/gal.
Gasoline is a commodity, a future to speculated on. Not a product anymore. The price fluctuates because corporate calls and says do this. Has nothing to do with the next delivery.
Watch the lumber prices at Home Depot. Another futures commodity driven by fear and greed rather than by production cost and demand.
