This chart, prepared in August of last year, is in 1996 dollars, so it won't correlate with the actual numbers in my earlier post (which were based on a 1982-1984 average), but the trend is the same.

That data does not reflect the run up since August, which IIRC, is about an additional 50% increase in the price at the pump.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - President Theodore Roosevelt, 1910
