BP to sell Southern California operations

In the process, BP will reshape California's energy landscape, where Arco for decades has vied with Chevron Corp. for the top spot in fuel retailing and refining.

hmmmmm. I hope they keep their prices down. AM/PM is the only place around here the offers any competition to Chevron for gas and diesel. Arco diesel is .20 cents cheaper at AM/PM vs Chevron.
