How insane is that?


2 US Navy vessels collide in Strait of Hormuz

"Still, the unusual collision between members of the same navy sparked a sudden rise in oil prices — which had been declining on the day — even though the strait remained open."

No, not the collision, though that is odd enough in its own right, but the increase in the price of oil because... well.. because nothing happened to affect it! What better reason to raise the price?

Bah!
