— Question of the Week: Now that gas prices have plunged, have your driving habits changed?

"I moved to the city, so I don't drive. It's about time the gas prices dropped, even though it doesn't affect me much."
Holly Gover, Student, Hemet, California

"I'm ecstatic over it! I hope it doesn't level out soon. Father south of New York, I heard it's less than two bucks."
Chris Oliver, Maintenance, Greenville

"Yes, because now it's cheaper and I travel more; before you were careful not to drive too much."
Barbara Seward, Retired Hairdresser, Walton

"I don't drive, but if I did, I'd be broke. I'm glad the prices are going down thoguh, for people who do drive. It was a little out-of-hand for a while."
Sara Fontaine, Sales Associate, Long Island

"No, we just don't do a lot of traveling."
Jane Wright, Amphenol worker, Unadilla

"To a degree, yeah, I'm sure everyone's has changed."
Paul Kinnear, Retired, Bainbridge
