People line up to buy gasoline at a Hess gas station in the Clinton neighborhood of Manhattan in New York on Friday, November 2, 2012. Motorists and people with gas cans waited as long as six hours and two hours respectively in order to fill their tanks. New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo and New Jersey Governor Chris Christie have announced plans to ease the shortage of gasoline. The supply dried up because of the closing of the port after Hurricane Sandy because of floating debris. (© Richard B. Levine)
