Godddam it. That means gas prices in ATL will go up 30 cents a gallon. Colonial pipeline is pretty much the ONLY way gasoline gets to Atlanta. Friggin stupid to have 5 million people depending on one gas pipeline.

According to al.com, this explosion is 5 miles away from where the leak happened.
But it is on a Colonial pipeline so gas prices are probably going to spike again.

frick.
I hope the good people of Helena are ok. I used to enjoy going to their King Biscuit blues fest in the 90's.
And thank god I have 13,000 Kroger fuels points and 20% of my portfolio in energy stocks.

That makes ALOT more sense now... I was confused by the radio reports about the explosion in Helena being just a couple miles from where the September accident happenned in Alabama. I started to question my sanity for a few minutes in my car this morning.
Thanks for clearing this up!
