This seems to have come only to me, so I forwarded it to the list. By some quirk, I've noticed that sometimes if I just click on "reply", the reply goes to the individual, but not to the list as a whole. I don't know why the software wants to put the double address -- individual, and also list -- in the "To:" line. I delete the individual address when replying, leaving only the pianotech one. The price of gasoline here fluctuates somewhere between about $2 and $2.60 per gallon. But remember, we don't use Imperial gallons. Some places in the U.S. have more expensive gas than others. And yes, diesel is a bit more, a reversal from the 1970's. In the chat room, I learned that Canadian gas in Calgary just got up to $.90/litre. (or was it $.99?) This is a double whammy, when it comes to interpreting the price: Canadian dollars, and litres instead of U.S. gallons. Who knows what the stuff really costs? More than ours, is my impression.
