I remember the last time prices hit $5 + a gallon. I was on my bike because I was poor and a guy yelled out of his truck. I live in a VERY car-centric city.

I was like "here we go again".

He was like "Hell yeah F the gas companies". I wasn't trying to make a political statement, but people were being nicer on the road for a short time. And it was a surreal experience.

I also remember everyone getting small motorbikes for a time. People were really embracing small vehicles for a short time. Then prices went down drastically and no more small vehicles for a while.

Is Yehuda Moon still going? I thought it finished running years ago.
