We are having --'run on gas stations'- word spread today, everyone gassing up-- some panic starting. Yes -I filled up and we filled our cans. Diesal lmay be running low. Son dabbles in newsservice and called us.. was a shooting at one with 4.00 $ galleon gas. (we were at 2.39 -3 days ago for reg. --Today it is 2.79 at the discount ones... people lining up at 2 pm.
We have 2 pipelines that bring gas into Georgia, both thru the LA. Miss. belt.they then run up to N.Y. --one is off because of Katrina-- They lifted the 'special additive"' requirement so they can send in any kind. Something like 7-9 refineries are down-(and we haven't been building new refineries in 30 years....--
Georgia Governor said not to panic--- but we should conserve gas and stay home for Labor day (read between the lines)
No gas cans in the Walmart---I did get extra feed --becasue I don't know who else will get extra feed 'in case' and the big barns can swoop down and empty the feed stores quick....
Interstates are closed going into LA.--I-10 and I -59 at the borders , announced
