When he comes on the line pose your question.

Just a suggestion, but if you're interested in the price of gas "to cpmpare what we are paying for by the gallon", you might want to post gas prices just a little more frequently than you have been. In the past 9 years of your Gas Buddy membership, you've averaged about two gas prices per year. If all you did was post one gas price a month (not multiple prices from one gas, but just one gas price), you would increase the amount of information you're passing on to your fellow members by more than 5 times, helping them be more knowledgeable shoppers for fuel. Just my opinion, but that might be more helpful to them than knowing how we compare "paying for by the gallon". But it's just a suggestion. . . 2/3370
