Drivers bitch, but won't switch

is the great headline for a story about gas prices in today's Toronto Star. I envy the headline writer...

From the article:

"As long as these prices go up and then come back down six weeks later, it's not going to fundamentally change (buying habits)," says the head of DesRosiers Automotive Consultants. "They'll say, `I'll bitch and complain and be pissed for those six weeks that gas prices are high, but damn it all, I'm going to drive the vehicle I want.'" A spokesman for Shell Canada said customers have verbally abused many of the company's station clerks over the past few days.
