Rerun Of An Old Useless Fact
A Barrel of Oil is 31.5 Gallons (4032 ounces, or 56 six-packs). Don't ask me who decided this matter.
$97.88/Barrel equals $3.11/Gallon of Crude. Refine it, take stuff out of it, put more stuff in it, add sales taxes and maybe a nickle or two of profits to the individual gas station, and there you have it.
Told you it was useless.
