Thanks for the advice
Thanks everyone for the great advice. Lacquer thinner sounds like it will do the trick. Speaking of fuel prices, here is some math for you.
Price of Crude 2000: $21.00
Price of gas 2000: $.98
Price of crude today: $67.00
Price of Gas today: $3.00
There are 42 gallons in a barrel of crude. They actually get over 50 gallons of product out of one barrel because refining is an expansion (heating process). Using the conservative number and straight math, we get the following:
67-21=46, 46/42=1.10, 1.10+.98=2.08
Gas today should be $2.08 a gallon! Remember the .98 2000 price already had the taxes and profit included, the only thing that changed was crude prices. So where did the extra .92 cents a gallon come from?? Pure Profit...... you read about it in the news as record profits, and thats just what they are reporting. Price manipulation in sync with the rise in crude prices, to make you think its because of crude.
Remember when gas began falling just before the elections, but crude was not moving? That was a fear adjustment. They began reducing the manipulated price because they feared the new and more democratic congress would investigate. Now they are obviously more confident that a investigation is not likely.
If you dont like paying $4.20 for aviation fuel, write your congress representatives and ask for an investigation. We want to know what creative excuses they will spout to cover the .92 price gouging. If they were to reduce their profits to year 2000 levels we would save $30.00 to $35.00 per RV load
