He says it's "not like how rappers kill each other over it," I have lived on both coasts, but find that I'm in danger of getting a circuit board to the back if I mention that fact while at Bucks. Same is true at the Au Bon Pain in Cambridge Center. Mr. Bergs-stein — and the AP in general — refuses to acknowledge or the increasing animosity between West Coast and East Coast entrepreneurs.

]]> Comment on Gas Prices Go Crazy by Julie Davis http://racetalkblog.com/2008/05/07/247/#comment-829 Julie Davis Sat, 14 Jun 2008 19:46:12 +0000 http://racetalkblog.com/?p=247#comment-829 It's $4.25 a gallon here now. That "gas at $2.99" ad really cracks me up when I see it because, as you mention, it really is not that much of a savings when compared to the cost of the car/truck unless gas keeps climbing a cent a day...then eventually it may turn out to be a huge savings especially if the purchaser uses the maximum gallons or miles. The average mileage driven by an American is about 13,000 a year, so it should not be hard for most people to hit the max. Say the truck gets 17 mpg and the gas climbs to $7 a gallon in a year, as some predict, then the max user would get 12,000 miles/17 mpg x $4 a gallon savings = $3058 a year. That would be $254 a month savings...not bad. Maybe Chrysler would fold! The main thing that it makes me laugh at is that it could be seen as negative advertising...advertising that actually decreases sales. To me it just points out that the car/truck is a gas hog. It’s $4.25 a gallon here now.
