prices that are being driven by turmoil in the middle east, but fundamentally, the dollar recovery, which is turning in pretty well the last several months. and the treasury will knock off refining capacity. and that is picking up. people are doing investments. but has not, has not been coming up sufficiently in the last several years. so here is an issue i think gas prices hovering to about $4 for a while now. >> do you think it will stay there? we've got summer coming up. it's not even memorial day yet. i've heard some experts saying as far as $6 a gallon. how far is this going? >> the short term and a long term issue. in the long term, i think that

there will be fundamental changes. if you look at the price of natural gas, today the price of gas, the price of crude oil into the united states is a racial of 30. which means that it used to be a racial of 5, now has created tremendous incentives to reduce crude oil based fuels. and we are seeing already in california several school districts, transferring their fleet to natural gas. if that happens, the demand for gasoline is going to fall and that is going to make issues, things simpler for consumers like us. i think that is going to be the fundamental transformation in the united states now that we have a flood of natural gas, we should see in the next several years a substantial substitution in our staff.

and that is going to help. in the meantime, i think that we should expect gasoline prices to remain at the levels, if not higher, than we are currently seeing. >> okay, we appreciate your time and insight for us. time now is 7:48. we do have some developing news right now. the highway patrol is on the scene of a fatal accident in san mateo. the highway patrol says a car went off the road and into a cliff area. firefighters are on the scene, but they have called the san mateo county coroner. a tow truck is also in the area. police in southern california are investigating a bizarre death after they say a man pushed a woman out of the car, and onto a freeway. it happened on friday in la crescenta. witnesses reportedly saw the man and woman fighting inside
