Old: Like many of your other respondants, I feel cost of fuel is a factor. This cost of fuel is having a far greater impact than most folks realize. Filling up the old family buggy, truck or tractor is small potatoes. Just look at the shear number of trucks on the highway today, hauling goods to the consuming public. To each one of us, our share of the added fuel cost of the trucking and production of the commodity on the truck is a much greater cost. Last summer when this energy took off, I said that over the next 24 months as this whole thing played out, the actual cost of living was going to increase by 20 to 25%. That takes one Hell of a lot of cash folks may otherwise spend on nonessentials. Of course with the added cost of fuel came the added cost of steel production. I heard one auctioneer say, auctions this spring are nothing more than a gathering of scrap dealers.
