Let me add to your disgust...being in the trucking business, I was informed
this afternoon that Force Majaeure (SP?) fuel price was in effect due to the
terrorist activity and that stations in the area were charging as much as
$5.00 a gallon for diesel.
Trucking companies have already started turning down loads for that area of
the company and trucks are being diverted to handle FedEx, UPS and Airborne
air freight for tomorrow as the plane could not fly tonight.
