This is a rant to Atlanta-based PO's. Gas has gotten INCREDIBLY SCARCE! GAAZ and I went around multiple gas stations between work and home last night and found ourselves wanting at EVERY ONE! Somehow everyone else at our work has been able to scrounge up some gas azt some miracle pump, but we're left out to dry. Now we won't be able to come to work tomorrow unless we can find some gas on the way home. I've heard tell of a website that will tell you where you can get gas in the local area, but no URL has surfaced. I was hoping someone could shed some light on this for me!

XD yeah, even the gas stations this far north (I'm at school) have run out, now. At this rate, I may not be able to go to class next week. Which, y'know, at least I don't have any tests (like I did this week) but it still would really suck.

I've actually been not attending some of my classes (20 - 30 minute drive either way) in order to save on gas.

After dropping Reverend off at the airport Monday morning I almost ran out of gas in downtown Atlanta because of the traffic and complete lack of gas! I got off exit after exit and did not find a single gas station with gas. Finally, nearing the perimeter (85/285) I got off an exit and saw, in the distance, a gas sign WITH NUMBERS ON IT. Now, this only half raised my hopes because other gas stations had put numbers up but had no gas (that should be illegal. :[ ). I saw a long line out of the Shell station and realized they DID have gas! It was amazing, and I was so ridiculously relieved. I was also stared at by all the businessmen and Hispanic workers (waiting for their next job) while filling up the tank on my miata. Slightly unnerving experience.

It's nice to hear others with the same problem though. Also, in my part of Atlanta it's a little easier to find gas, but you should start finding gas when your tank still has at least a quarter left of gas.

You kind of have to look at the transaction times. Most QTs carry it right now but you do have to wait for it. The QT at Allgood and 41 is where we gassed up this morning if that helps any.

you mean kinda like petrol is short for petroleum? :p

Anyways one of the guys on another board I go on works at a gas station, what normally lasts them a week is only lasting them a day. People are filling up on 3/4 tank as well as filling up everything else they can get their hands on to make things worse. It's like needing bread or milk when flurries are announced. The general public makes their own shortage but to compound things there's only very few refineries that make the type of low sulfur gas Atl is required to have.
