Idiots and their cars

[sparr]

Today while biking the first mile of my 20 mile mixed-transit commute I passed a gas station that had just gotten a delivery. Cars were backed up for blocks waiting to get in. 30 cars in a row at a generous estimate of 2 minutes per car makes for an hour wait... and over half of them had their engines running while sitting in line. This is while it is 72 degrees outside and there's a good breeze, so A/C isn't even a good excuse.

I've been hearing of gas problems from lots of people in your part of the world ..... plus people a few hours north as well ....

This genuinely baffles me .... our gas prices have actually been falling the last week or so ....

crazyness.
