    Gas rationing in Jersey starts tomorrow in 12 northern counties...(USA Today)

    Articles in Google News don't discuss whether diesel is also being rationed. Rationing is odd-even, so odds like me could fuel up on the 3rd, 5th, etc. Evens like my lovely bride would fill up on the opposite days. If your plate ends in a letter, you're an odd....
