Gasoline in Britain is estimated to cost 1.5 British pounds per litre
by the end of this year.

That doesn't sound too bad... let's see... 1.5 pounds is 3 dollars...
one litre is .26 U.S. gallon so there are four litres in one gallon.

Four litres times 3 dollars equals $12 per gallon.

Oh well, bye folks... gotta go. Time for me to hop into my Hummer
stretch limo again <http://www.oilempire.us/graphics/Hummer2.jpg> and
zip on down to Starbucks for a grande skim sugar free extra hot
caramel macchiato...
