I remember the publicity tour they did with that. It was mounted to the top of a 747 and flown around the country. My dad took me out of school for the day to go look at it.

The Valdez basically hadn't even come to a stop yet and the prices were being jacked up before any real impact was known.

Y'all can do the math ...
