Right. "Any little scare". Agreed, except I would have used the word, "excuse" rather than "scare". I recall a situation several years ago, wherein Dick Cheney had a heart attack and the price of gas spiked. Why?

The oil industry works in mysterious ways. Well, not really, but that's what were expected to believe.
