This article
is about Trilby Lundberg who oversees the popular Lundberg Survey that
tracks gasoline prices.  It’s a great article because it is filled
with her strong, accurate, and easy-to-understand observations and
analysis about gas prices, global warming, and much more.  Two of
the many highlights:

1) Are there five oil industry executives someplace deciding the price of gas?

“That would be tragic because that would wreck the market,” she said. “And it would be a comedy because it is impossible.”

Lundberg said oil companies have no interest in helping each other and
instead want to increase their sales at the expense of the competition.

2) On gasoline regulation: 

She
condemns the “overzealous meddling” of the Environmental Protection
Agency and other federal agencies, and said government-mandated
reformulation of unleaded gas and engine modifications aimed at
curtailing emissions are more to blame for gas price increases than the
worldwide Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries.
