It is partially converted to gas, I think!   :'(

yep, and that gas is low BTU-------obvious by its orange flame when lit. with the gas produced by some beer, the flame is not hot enough to burn hair, while with others, the flame will darken your toenails. be careful while testing---------------you may use all your carbon credits.

Not to also say, you might modify your clothes a little. :nervous: :nixweiss:

This thread made me think where in the world is the cheapest gas currently and it's in Venezuela. They pay $.25/gallon (see here).

Cheap gas in United States:  Oklahoma cities make the list at #1 and #3

City Price Trend
Tulsa 3.728 
Wichita 3.767 
Oklahoma City 3.784 
Tucson 3.816 
Montgomery 3.855 
Columbia 3.856 
Albuquerque 3.859 
Memphis 3.862 
Omaha 3.863 
Quad Cities 3.865 


It's a pretty sad commentary on the state of things when you try to brag on having some of the cheapest gas at $3.73 per gallon :(

Woo Woo!  Yupper! 

I went there 2 years ago, way out of the squalid city of Teguchigalpa into Sandanista territory on the Nicuargua border...Beautiful weather, nice peasants, good food but only one paved road..The Pan American Hwy...Smoked a azzpile of cigars and drank enough Flor De Cana to float a ship in...Great vacation.

You get used to the armed guards after a while :orange:

I travel to both countries frequently.  You may want to put Ecuador on the far back burner as a place to live or retire.  Costa Rica, on the other hand, FIRST CLASS.  Lot's of US investment going on there at the moment due to the extremely favorable business climate.

If you do the math that means that US citzens pay nearly twice as much for gas, as a percentage of their income, than the Venezuelans.

Anyone surprised?

Great, but we also don't live in a semi-communist dictatorship and have a quality of life far exceeding anything they could ever dream of.
