The first report from Cleveland Florida Nov 25th 2008. Gas prices dropped to $1.84 after reaching almost $4.00 per gal. The high price led to a global economic meltdown. The bottom was falling out of the world economic picture and all money was soon to be worthless. Finally the consumers got a little relief. I thought the price drop was remarkable so I remarked about it. ItâÂÂs the basis for all journalism it is a journal and this is entry No1.
