Decline in gas consumption

USA Today reports gas use last month was 0.6% less than a year ago. For the gasoline consumption to go down by a small amount could have a significant impact. Generally, the US consumption increases by about 1.5% annually. If the downward trend continues further, or if we at least can maintain the reduction in gas use, an impact could be seen on gas prices. It seems some of us are changing our habits, and maybe we can all convince more people to do the same.
