What!!!! 91 octane in Sarnia where the crap is made is $0.70/litre reg 87 is
65.4.  Sunoco ultra 94 is 75.5 a litre.  What the heck is wrong with this
country?????

	That's not always true Mike...  I was in San Jose, CA a couple of
weeks
	ago and the premium gas was $1.99US/gal!  Here in Ottawa we are
hitting
	around $0.67CAN/L right now for premium.
