We'll see how many of these brave souls stick around when the action starts happening. I wonder how many bought one way vs two way tickets.

During the Gulf war we were dropping 15,000 lb "daisy cutter" bombs. After the drop a second plane would immediately fly over and drop leaflets saying we were coming back the next day with the same thing. The Iraqies surrendered in droves. Our troops 20km away said the concussion and vibration would knock you off your feet if you were not standing stable. Car alarms were going off in Ridyah? Saudi Arabia when one of these bad boys hit. BTW our new daisy cutters are 21,000 lbs.

Could someone explain why diesel fuel was always cheaper than gasoline until I bought my Duromax?? Now it is sometimes the same price a premium!! I thought diesel was less expensive to produce! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]Jim

NWYenko, I always thought diesel was cheaper to but it has slowly caught up and passed the gas prices. I saw a sticker on one of the pumps the other day that said there was .43 cents tax on each gallon. I guess the government is to blame for a cheaper product being more exspensive.

Government and Taxes!

In Norway as said before we pay almost 5,80 US$ for each gallon, and that is pretty much the same if its diesel or gas!

Concerning cars, if the cars are newer than 30 years, they double or sometimes tripple the price you payed for the car in taxes before you get plates on it, so a 50 k$ new US car like a Corvette is 200 K US $ in Norway before it has license plates on it!!!!

THEY ARE CRAZY!
