The bolded part shows you have no idea how a commodity market works.

The unbolded part shows you have no understanding of why complaining about gas prices in a thread about an entire town getting devestated is silly.

Back on topic, I've got a few friends who live in Slave, one of them is down here for the week taking a course. He's rounding up supplies to take back with him when he heads back north at the end of the week. It's great to see people like him who are doing what they can to help out, especially considering there's a good chance he's one of the folks who's lost just about everything and will need help shortly.
