Gas Prices?
By Chuck Moon

Just a quick question about gas prices. Why is regular gas in Seattle $2.05 to $2.15 a gallon for regular gas and here it is $2.75? I know that it is not the local gas station owners fault. Is it taxes, shipping costs, or what? Am I being paranoid or are we getting ripped off?
Thanks,

Chuck Moon

PS I still say if we need a bridge it should be off this island and to the Al-Can Highway.
