Price of Gas

Just had to share this item. Says I, "Sami, how much does gas cost here?" Sami is our taxi driver friend who drove cab for many years in NY city. "About 7 skekels" I roughed in the math and said, "That is over $7 per gallon." "Yes", smiles Sami. "But Americans complain about $4 per gallon." "I know", says he, "I could make much money if gas $4 here." I confirmed those figures at the pump and online. And the driving here is anything but fuel efficient with poor road conditions, speed bumps, crowded towns, and pedestrians everywhere; their MPGs must be lower than the American norm.
