[Ansteorra] OT:Gas Prices going up thanks to IKE

[HE Chiang]

Would that be profits or profit margin? There is a difference, you know. It 
is my understanding that while the profits may be really big, their profit 
margin is rather small. From what I have been given to understand their 
profit margin is less than 10 cents a gallon, while the govt portion of the 
price of a gallon is far more than that.
