    it's not really an apples to apples comparison if the price is expressed in different currencies. ie: you wouldn't say 1m is close enough to 3' and just go with it would you? of course not, thats just plain ridiculous.

    For this thread the .05 difference in the Canadian and American dollars is irrelivant

    I imagine you're a little pissy after last night, so I'll leave you alone now.

    Might I suggest you start your own thread entitled " Currency corrected gas prices "

    You completely missed the point of this thread which started as a spoof on the Americans pissing and moaning that gas MIGHT reach $5 a gallon this summer , when at the time I started this thread lots of us in Canada were already paying that .

    I've got no time for your tamponnery today .

    You are the weakest link , goodbye .

    PS the current .04 difference in currency adds .15 per gallon US for anyone that cares

    looks like "a little pissy" was on the conservative side. :D

    My point is that if you're going to convert price per L (Canadian) to price per gallon (American) for price comparison purposes it only makes sense to convert to US$ for a true apples to apples comparison.

    Thing is, none of us really care. It's not like I'm planning a trip to Canada and want to have the trip planned down to the cent. The fact OZ is converting to gallons is good enough for me
