About a quarter. Close to 20 cents if a good gas war was goin on. No children, a gas war is not like the oil wars we have these days, there was usually not any shooting and governments didn't get involved. Course gas was so cheap cause a folks only used it to 'turbo-charge' the fires in their steam powered jitneys for clandestine drag races out behind Ol'man Jensens livery stable. Why I remember how, after we had pushed our flivers through the snow, up hill to the strip, and how right in the middle of the race the Indians swooped down. ...and.. uh.. where was I? Oh, yeah, Ol'man Jensen had a spotted mule which.. uh ..mmm..ZZZZZZZZZZZ
