This morning, assuming the county commissioners’ briefing agenda holds true, the commissioners have discussed fuel in two ways. One conversation is in regards to recommendations being made by an energy conservation commission.  The other discussion is the impact of oil prices on the Public Works department. Chris Dunagan is attending.

In a related note, did you know U.S. fuel consumption was down 3 percent during the first half of this year? I’ve been interested in Derek Sheppard’s hypermiling experiment and I suggest after this that you should get interested too.
