my guess would be that there is still plenty of gasoline and the petroleum interests dont want to bury themselves with any more people they cant do anything with, then as now
@hjb103055 You got to be kidding. The highest we went around here was 55 cents. I remember the problem when gas reached the dollar mark. All the pumps only had cents on them, no space for the dollars. In 1978, gas was around 61 cents in CA.
Yip... This is why its important to educate ourselves on the history of things. Helps you understand whats happening in the present moment, and what's likely to happen in the future.
NO HE IS NOT he is 65 And still has a long long way be for he carks it !!!!!! i didnt want to answer you but u annoyed me so much "is mike dead" pishhhh ANY WAY ...the movie is awesome 10 thumbs up :)
Yeah, that WAS a classic bit! I loved it when he said "Correct me if I'm wrong", and everyone in the room raised their hands! LOL! The video albums he did after "Elephant Parts" have some great bits too...wish he'd do more of them!
Mike Nesmith IS HILARIOUS!!! Im 14 and probably the only kid in my state who knows who this guy is :D I used to watch this with my dad when I was little. He likes the Clue thing
I hate to tell you this, Mike old buddy, but the "doomsayers" were right. Prices of gas really are out of sight...and not in a good way, either.

I paid 11.7 cents/gallon in Ft. Lauderdale, FLA in 1963 (the station across the street was changing its sign from 12.3 to 11.7 as I left... LOL!
Gee, I wonder how the oil companies continue to post record profits...

In 1974 gas was around $5.00 and, yes, we had to wait in line hours to get it.

I like the way he says "Well, there is something funny about the gasoline prices" at the end.

Watched this when it came out. Best bit was the detective bursting into the wrong room. Classic.

The Nez was way ahead of his time, EP is a staple in my library. If you can check out his Television Parts vhs. Really great.
