When diesel prices started going up in October 1999, I joined OPIS. They reported any and all problems reported by oil companies. It was amazing how many problems were reported, nationwide. The vast majority of the problems reported were So-and So's refinery reported problems with their such...

The peak for fuel prices have past, for now. Freight is moving, some finance companies have relinquished and are working with O/O's wanting to keep their trucks, the weather is warming up (in most places). How did you weather the storm (aka: the hottest cold season of 2000 thus far)?

:o Check out Joes forum now. Joe has been busy cleaning house as of today (extensive housecleaning).
