I am now looking back on week three since the initial spike in petrol prices. On Friday of week 3 gas prices were at $4.45 per gallon diesel was $3.32. I was on the verge of giving up running combustion engines altogether but an oportunity struck. I was offered a promotion at the firm were I worked as a practicing lawyer, this promotion raising my anual salary by 650,000 dollars was just the thing i needed to continue you burning fossil fuels. I gave up my conservative ways and resumed driving whenever convenient.
