<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fatima, post: 1258205, member: 22143&quot;]It&#039;s an interesting story but there are a few things that make me not believe it.&nbsp; The first one is technical.&nbsp; Gasoline is a complex mix of chemicals and we don&#039;t use the same stuff here in the USA as used in Europe and even the grade is different as they basically use 91 octane.&nbsp;&nbsp; It would seem unlikely they would reset their refineries to produce American gasoline.&nbsp; Second, gasoline is perishable. It&#039;s not stable which makes it troublesome to put in a tanker and ship around the world.&nbsp;&nbsp; Third, gasoline is extremely price sensitive.&nbsp; I don&#039;t see how it could be produced at a reasonable price in Europe and shipped to the USA and sold at American prices.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I know that most of the East coast gets it&#039;s gasoline from the Colonial pipeline that connects it to the Gulf area. There are numerous gasoline farms located off this pipeline where it&#039;s then trucked to the local area.&nbsp; The NE also has a number of oil wells and another pipeline distribution system.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
