Absent Rita, we should have seen gas prices continue to fall.

The thing we hit as we head into fall is leaf-peeping, and leaf-peeping takes a lot of gas,

I don't think anybody knows what the gas prices are going to do. We've seen all the indications that gas prices are going up.

I continue to believe that the effects of higher gas prices on the consumer are overestimated. Most of the important measures of discretionary spending such as furniture, lawn and garden and food sales held up nicely.

I'd love to fly, especially with the gas prices right now.

We think gas prices had something to do with it.
