I remember the time I got diverted into Denver Stapleton by weather one
night and had to refuel at the contract terminal (AF jets make Jeep
mileage
look GOOD - I needed 3600 lbs or so, about 600 gallons).  At the time,
they
gave Green Stamps with the purchase, so I had a real pile by the time I
got
back home - and had to turn in the stamps to the AF.

I found some old photos when we cleaned the folks house out before we sold
it.  One was of a couple of us standing in front of a Texaco station in
Brownwood, Texas where the sign had regular for 12.9 cents per gallon in
the mid '50s before the federal tax was passed.  That made the original 4
cents a gallon tax nearly 25% of the cost of a gallon.

My, how times have changed.
