    In the United States, gas has become such a luxury that it's now being awarded as a lottery prize instead of money. people living in states like Florida and Oklahoma can get "free gas for life" if they win the lottery — which means they get $2600 for gas every year. In 40 years, they'll be able to drive into town on that. [via Treehugger]
