COMMENTARY     

Roger
7th March 2011 		I find it hard to believe that the average per capita gasoline consumption in California is less than 1/10 of the national average. Long distance commutes and spotty public transportation are not supportive of very low gas consumption. It sounds like the bottom 6 are incorrect. I can believe New York due to public transportation and a highly concentrated population. Below that is not believable.

1st December 2010 		Your numbers do not make sense. I suggest you state explicitly what the numbers mean. Gallons, barrels, per what capita, state or federal, per what GDP, state or federal. I think you must expect that the people who access this information already know what it means. Always state any metric used. Please. California usage less than almost everyone else? LA is based upon the automobile. Total should be about 140 billion gallons of gasoline.

27th September 2010 		Question?

How many gallons of gasoline are in a barrel?
