A lot of that was reduced demand of anything using petroleum in its ingrediants (rubber, plastic, etc.), as well as less diesel fuel shipping stuff around

And I seem to recall a lot of people here and on CF who claimed that higher gas prices would never affect anyone's decision-making. Now all of a sudden you see many of those same people with more fuel-efficient vehicles. Hmm.
