I was just looking at CNN news and gas stations are running out of gas. People are actually at the pump fighting for gas. The police had to be called it got so bad. I have not come cross this so far. Right after Ike came ashore about 18 miles from here some of the stations there were out. Lately I have not seen or heard anymore about this until today. Where you live have any of the gas stations given out of gas?

I've heard scattered reports of angry mobs and fighting, mostly from Georgia recently. There WERE some shortages here in Ohio, gas wise but no one got that tense. But then again, we didn't have shortages for weeks like some people have had.

Hi Chevee, Here in the U.K is fine but the gas prices are high and poele seem to accept theat and there are too many cars on the road as it is so we have no problems here. Tamara

Seems to be plenty of gasoline here in Southern California. I haven't noticed any shortages, but then I don't drive at the moment but still, I'm sure someone would have talked about them if there were. Fighting over gasoline seems rather silly to me

I haven't seen anything like this in our area. It's getting bad. I think when there is a storm like Ike was, people panic and think they are not going to be able to get gas and things like that.
