GAS PRICE DRUMBEAT: The question of the ages

To ColumbiaMagazine.com:

I would like to know why the gas prices are lower when you leave Adair and Green Counties - the price in Glasgow is 2.49 and in other surrounding counties it is approximately 2.55 a gallon and here it is between 2.62 and 2.65. Just my observation.

s/Lorne Holler

Mr. Holler, the question you pose about this issue is one which has confounded folks in this community for decades. High prices hurt commerce for all of Adair County . One of the ways to fight the prices is with dollars. Cut way back on driving. Walk. Carpool. Get a bike. Get an electric or hybrid vehicle. Get a horse. Ride a bus. Live close to where you work. Be an activist about it, and act with your vote. Let the City Council, Adair County Fiscal Court, School Board, Chamber of Commerce, and the State Attorney General know what you think about the problem. Find out exactly how each of them has responded to the high prices. Find out how candidates feel about the inequities. It is election time. And sound off in the media and in gatherings. -EW
