    I've been hauling fuel for 20 some years, and Dave hit the nail on the head.
    Most of the existing refineries got some much needed revamps last year.
    Every time the oil campanies ask about building a new refinery, every one
    starts screaming they don't want it in thier back yards. These tree huggers
    are always making a big fuss. The refineries we do have are almost allways
    running a full speed. But it's been so slow the last 6 months that drivers that
    normally do 3 & 4 loads of fuel a day are only getting 1 load now.
    They need to be able to build some new refineries and loading terminals.
    I've seen them tear down three loading terminals in Tampa,Florida.
    And they have not built a new one in 20 some years.
    Plus there are also some greedy people in the oil business. Kurt
