Oil could help (stocks) a little, but more than anything else it is how the S&P is up for the year and the Dow is teetering. There's some incentive to see the Dow close higher.

I think we're moving higher because it's the path of least resistance. You're seeing some very stock-specific moves, but no real trends. We're just waiting to see what happens this afternoon.

We need some help from gasoline before crude oil can pick up.

There are countries in Africa who also need our help, but were not there because theres no oil there. If we want to stop terrorism, we need to stop acting like terrorists.

Apparently someone blew up down there and we hit his oil. I went up and hit the wall, bent the ball joints, rear end moved over and the wheels were killed. We were just really, really lucky to finish the race.

After Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, oil companies were asked to help Americans in need. We are happy to respond, by offering people here in Philadelphia help this winter, and we hope that no one has to make sacrifices to stay warm.
