The ones that I've seen so far (among others I'm sure) are Russia and Venezuela (food and supplies), Britain and Switzerland. Thanks all of you. We appreciate it.
On the gas front, I gassed up today at BP. They were out of regular and mid-grade, but were selling premium at the price they had regular at (3.09). Personally, I appreciate that. But this is the first time I can remember stations actually being our for a while
