They have what is essentially an ICBM in low orbit. It could have something to do with the promised hard blow against the West for 11 February. Maybe Iran already has a warhead or two and this is the way they will demonstrate that capability- with an EMP shot at the US and an ultimatum of some sort or just an over-ocean blast. At any rate they have promised some sort of bad action and I am loading up gas cans for what I
kind of expect will be a large spike in the price of oil and thus gas. If it happens I will be riding my scooter with the car parked for a while, at least. I got the scoot when the price of gas passed $4. I figure, considering the expected life of the scoot and regular expense differences between it and my car, it is cost effective to ride the two wheeler when regular gas at the pump is over $2.60.
Sounds like wisdom.
