LETTER: Here go those gasoline prices again

I just found a gasoline receipt from a station at Hualapai and Tropicana from Oct. 15, 2020, when I paid $2.39 a gallon. I needed gas last week and went to the same place and had to pay $5.29. At least that was cheaper than the $5.75 at the Shell station a mile away on Grand Canyon. Apparently what we released from our strategic oil reserves has run dry.

When will D.C. wake up and realize that the concept of green energy is years away, at best, and we Americans have to survive in the interim? I believe it’s referred to as a “transition.”

LETTER: Highways will go the way of the horse and buggy

I personally can’t wait to give up the soporific scenery, racetrack-like mentality and beautiful Baker bathroom stops of the Interstate 15 car commute in favor of a sleek, smooth train.
