Hey all,
I remember some discussion on state gas taxes a little while back.
Well, in today's Washington Post there is a chart of the current state
gasoline taxes (Page Va. 4).  I'll go ahead and post them here, and will
probably post them again tomorrow on Type2.

Here they are, arranged from highest to lowest:
Taxes are in cents per gallon

1) Connecticut:  36.00
2) Rhode Island:  29.00
