The best thing I can tell you that the oil companies are screwing all of us like house cats here. In Indiana gas last week was $3.59.9 for regular gas. The only thing that I was lucky to do was convert my 91 GMC truck to propane, since I already have 4 tractors that run on propane already. Just got it running over the weekend, and It purrs like a kitten on it and I buy propane for $1.50/ gal. The oil companies are going to ruin this country with these price like they are and they need to be held accountable for the record BILLIONS AND BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN QUARTERLY PROFITS!!!!!!!!!! Each quarter for the last several years now. They had to regulate Ma Bell and several other companies in history because of price gouging and eliminating the competitionand now is the time for them to regulate these thieves. They might as well be holding all of us at gun point. They are without the gun!!!! If the government wants to put some control on these guys, The simplest way would be not to allow them to sell gas for 3 or 4 days up to a week at a time for price gouging. Even a month would be a tough penalty that would be reasonable if necessary. and not just one station, but all they own. This might slow them down and make the oil companies stop and think. Maybe not, I don't know. It would be a good start!!!!! And I don't understand why we are selling all of the oil that is pumped in Alaska to China and Japan. At these prices they can afford to refine all of the sulfur out and keep it here in our country. This is all a bunch of bull sh!t as well!!!! Its my 2 cents. Oh, by the way, My 2 Farmall 400's and my 450 and my ford 860 that are on propane are the only thing that is keeping me in farming at the time, and run like new. It takes allot of time and money to keep them that way.

Memories of an IH Super A When I was ? up to 10, I worked on my Papaw's farm in Greeneville, TN every summer. As I grew older (7), it was the thrill of my day to ride or drive on the tractor. My Papaw had a 1954 IH Super A that he bought to replace a Cub. My Papaw raised "baccer" (tobacco) and corn with the Super A, but the fondest memory was of the sawmill. He owned a small sawmill for sawing "baccer" sticks. The Super A was the powerplant. When I was old enough (7 or 8), I would get up early and be dressed to
