Any runs on gas stations where you live?

Driving home around 7:00 tonight, and people are waiting in huge lines for gas at every station along my way. The right lanes leading up to some stations were backed up for two and three blocks.

I saw on the news that people were doing that in Atlanta.. I guessed that when people here saw that they would freak and do the same thing.. Sure enough.

This is in Charlotte, North Carolina.. it's crazy.

BTW - at 7:00, prices were already over $3.00 - I think regular was around $3.10 per gallon.

Creating a false demand will just cause prices to rise faster.
