It is what it is <sigh> Life does go on.

William S. Schurman

In 1938 my dad ran a Shell gas station in Vermont. He sold gas 5 gal for a dollar, or 20 cents a gal.

Put that in the consumers price index website

20 cents in 1938 has the same buying power as $3.21 today. Gas has not really gone up over the past 70 + years.
