[QUOTE="GeneW, post: 3888773, member: 27284"] Media sensation and trouble-stirring crap. That area (East Coast) has pretty much a continual rolling average, of about 20-21 days on refined ready to be sold Diesel, in stock, in storage, in process of being delivered, etc. That's a few days lower than typical in the past, but it's no big deal. Every new day, every sunrise, there is the same usual 20-21 days of diesel in stock. The refineries are open and running normally, none are broken down, they're doing their thing. How to create a shortage? Just start a rumor, or run news sensational stories, that there is a shortage. What happens? Everybody and their dog filled up all their cans, vehicles, etc, and makes a run on the available supply. Liars figure, figures lie. On a slightly different topic, to the best of my knowledge, there are NO REFINERIES between Florida and Delaware. That entire area gets their fuel by pipelines from refineries distant to them, and barges carry a lot, and some trucked there. Ideally there would be some refineries in that big area, but there are none. Seems kinda silly, stupid, crazy, and dangerous to not have local are refineries, but they have their heads up their wazoos. The media just loves stirring up *********. [/QUOTE]
