If you own a car, ride a plane, or ever take taxicabs, you know that the cost of fuel seems to go up unexpectedly – and it comes out of your pocket. Gas prices are a real concern in a cash-strapped society. Just when we think they’re going down, they move back up, and we’re left scrambling for ex |
