So much for economic Armageddon. The federal government's weekly survey shows that the average gallon of self-serve regular in L.A. for the week ended May 28 was $3.38, compared with $3.42 a week earlier. SF is eight 12 cents higher. That's still a lot of money to pay for gas, but it's hardly the calamity that's been played up over the last week or two. And please, can't we have a moratorium on those TV news stories in which "reporters" ask folks filling their tanks what they think of these gosh-darn high prices?
