How much is gas now?

I never even look at the price per gallon anymore when I get it, but I'm curious to what it's like around the US now.

Not really sure what the point of your post is, but obviously the price of gas depends on a multitude of variables, including local market conditions. That is to say, the price of gas depends in part on where you are located. You're (presumably) in California, I'm (definately) in West Virginia, so the price I pay is (or should be) completely irrelevant to you.

1 $ = 0.71761751 €
1 liter of unleaded octane 95, I paid this morning: € 1.495

In gallons and dollars, that is: $ 7,8861 per gallon.

I'm an excellent speller, a pretty decent typist, and not bad at all with grammar and punctuation.

But I sure screwed up that one, didn't I?

Didn't notice it when I typed it, then reading through the posts I saw it, thought to myself "That's not right, I better fix that." Now I guess there's no need to fix it--let it live in infamy, a testament to the imperfect nature of, well, me.

in sunny UK is is £1.05 a litr, @ 4.3 lts to the US gallon, that is £4.51 a gallon, @ $1.65 to the £ that is a staggering $7.45 a US gallon.

Lukily my car does 57 miles to the US gallon, if I am nice to it.

Bill

Just re-checked and the US gallon conversion is 3.785412 so that will be $6.55 a US Gallon with my car doing 50 mpg

Oh, I wasn't meaning to pick on you, specifically. It's just one of those words that I commonly see, as you put it, excellent spellers frequently messing up on. I'd love to do (or at least read) a study as to why certain words get misspelled more than others.
