If you live in the ATLANTA area, RELAX on the GAS situation! Your part of the PROBLEM if your PANICKING!

So Atlanta has a minor gas shortage right now due to the hurricanes. A lot of stations are out of gas and people are panicking and filling up daily so they don't run out. Relax people. Your making a bad situation worse. If you have 3/4 of a tank and you know that will take you a week, you don't need to go fill up. STOP. If you can drive less for a week, drive less. Unless you are at a quarter tank or less, relax. And when you fill up, don't fill all the way up, get back to 1/2 or 3/4 and go about your business. Stop HOARDING gas, relax.

We just had the same situation here in Tennessee the week of Ike. Lines were down the roads with people filling up 10 to 15 gas cans PLUS all of their cars and now even 3 weeks later we still have no gas at some stations. If everybody keeps hoarding it, there won't be ANY so lay off!!! I agree totally with you!!!

Its gotten really silly. I have a half a tank and I know it will last 7-10 days, at a quarter tank I will fill to a half and do the dame thing until things normalize. Thats what everyone should be doing.
