	I still think gas prices will continue trending downward for a while. Two steps forwards (down), one step back (up).

	Just a space filler with no new content. Georgia invasion worries have already reduce the downward trend in oil. Look for rising prices is the very near term. Enjoy the cheap gas while you can. This is good time to lock in pro-conservation driving habits, so that the next round of price increases will have a lesser impact.
