Gasoline customers check prices and leave at a BP station in Stockbridge, Ga.,
Wednesday, Aug. 31, 2005. Gasoline price soared Wednesday toward $3 a gallon
in many parts of the country, surpassing that level in some places, such as this station,
as key refineries and pipelines remained crippled by Hurricane Katrina, crimping
supplies and leading to caps on the amount of fuel delivered to retailers.
