Fair enough. Have companies up there talked about "surge pricing" as well? I remember from this past summer companies like Wal Mart were talking about using electronic price tags to update prices in real time at different times of day and different seasons depending on demand. Given examples were things like increasing the price of water and ice on hot days or ready made meals around lunch and dinner time.
