The Expediter News: First, we had to change our email address. Please send email to: [email protected]

We have just hired several new staff members to help us publish our first issue. This paper will be distributed at truck stops throughout Michigan, Ohio, Indiana. We plan on making the first issue available in early summer 2001. We'll post updates to keep you all informed of our progress. We plan on having content unlike any other paper. Meanwhile,lets hear from you about what you'd like to see in the paper. Maybe you have an idea for an article you'd like to publish. By the way, did you know this fact?

"..... that just prior to the price spikes (in gas prices last summer), hundreds of millions of gallons of gasoline were shipped by Midwest refiners to other parts of the country and exported to foreign destinations – inventory manipulations that precipitated the shortages which led to the price spikes."

Do you think it's likely this activity was also responsible for the surge in diesel prices during the same period?
