I appreciate the comments by Mr. Langley and agree the gas market is manipulated. San Diego has suffered higher than average gas prices for many years over and above the national average. The gas companies do it because they can do it and no one is stopping them. I have posted a link to this story on my blog: Path to Well-Being at http://asheham.wordpress.com/
