Funnier yet is when the qualified person that's allowed to pump your gas is standing there smoking. Seen that many times when I lived in that state.

My understanding (I could be wrong) is that part of the reason gas costs less here in NJ is that it costs more to insure a "self serve" gas station than a "professionally serviced" station. In summary: the nit-wits who pump gas professionally are better at gas pumping than the occaisional nit-wit who tries to pump his own gas but forgets what he's doing and drives away with the nozzle still in his tank (casing a fire that burns down the entire station). I also understand that gas here costs less because we have refineries.

Yeah, well, we have an ocean full of the stuff and our gas prices didn't fall!

I never see that for long--I drive away before he gets to MY car....How blinkin' stupid can a person be and still have enough brain power to keep the heart beating?

I don't know why it's cheaper here (it doesn't feel cheap at $2.99/gal for 93) but the stations don't set the price. I believe we also don't tax it as much as New York.
