Report from the OC: Gas Prices Falling!!!

Whenever gas prices cross a major threshold, like, say $2 a gallon, the media goes into hysterics over the rising prices and its impacts on consumers. In many ways it was refreshing to see this headline in the Orange County Register:

Gas prices dip below $2 in parts of O.C.
A gallon can be found for $1.97; prices fall an 8th straight week
