Not that it's particularly relevant to the issue of writing our 
congresspeople (and I agree with the idea about using gas taxes to fund 
public transportation) but I thought I might add a sense of perspective.  
I'm attending graduate school in Newfoundland Canada and we're paying 
about .63 per LITRE, which, once all the various mathematical 
calculations are done, still works out to around $2.00 a gallon.  
Consider yourselves lucky.
