4. Two possible reasons
1. Tensions between Lebanon, Israel, Syria and Iran lessened, while nobody is too happy about the resolution of that conflict, it seems like things have cooled off. The 2006 Hurricaine season has, thus far, proven less destructive than previous years. A large find was uncovered in the gulf. Gas producers had been over producing to meet the demands (and to make more money while prices were high).

2. Bush and Rove gave a call to their saudi buddies and said "Hey lower the price of gas dimwits. We need to retain control of Congress in order to keep invading your neighbors."

I know which one I think more likely, but i suspect most find it hard to believe.
