Gas Prices

I just ran into a 2001 article from the Houston Chronicle that mentioned a jump in gasoline prices from $1.19 per gallon to over $1.40 per gallon in April of that year. It's difficult to believe gas cost so little only five years ago, and it seems like forever since it was below $2.50. Crikey, something must be done!

Also, Metin Sitti has agreed to be my advisor, and we're going to get the ball rolling with the related paperwork right away. Hooray!

Congrats. :)

Oh, the prices of yesteryear. Are we going to those old codgers who sit around the table years from now, saying "I remember when gas was only $1.19 a gallon." Or, "I remember when you could go out to a nice dinner and a movie for under $50." I can only imagine how much things will cost in 2026. When will minimum wage hit $10 per hour? When will the lowly penny be removed from circulation? So many questions, so little money.

Awesome =)
