[Healeys] natural gas

not sure how much natural gas would solve the oil problem, but i do remember buying a new car in alabama in 1976 that required unleaded fuel and i was forced to carry a couple of gallons in my trunk because lots of stations in small towns took a long time to put in the unleaded pumps.  it would take some kind of government mandate like the unleaded gas to get stations to put in natural gas unless natlural gas could be kept at a lower price than gasoline.   in germany during the 80's i remember the government dropping the tax on unleaded so that it was always cheaper than regular in order to get folks to buy cars with pollution control.   hjim
