Not to derail this everlasting discussion on gas prices (don't you wish a tank of gas lasted as long??) but here is an expaination of why bread is more expensive. I remembered a similar story in our local paper that even mentioned one of the large flour manufacturers had a letter of explaination / apology on their web site, but I don't remember who the company was. Seems like it was perhaps headquartered in CT?

The abusive price of gas, allowing the extremely rich to get even richer, is causing prices of almost everything to increase because it has to be trucked somewhere along the line. I could support nationalizing the oil companies, even knowing how much the feds would screw things up.
