I'm in! What About You?

[Skunkterd]

SUBJECT: Stick it up their behind day!!
IT HAS BEEN CALCULATED THAT IF EVERYONE IN THE UNITED STATES
DID NOT
PURCHASE A DROP OF GASOLINE FOR ONE DAY AND ALL AT THE SAME
TIME, THE
OIL COMPANIES WOULD CHOKE ON THEIR STOCKPILES. IF IT IS DONE
AT THE SAME
TIME IT WOULD HIT THE ENTIRE INDUSTRY WITH A NET LOSS OF OVER
4.6
BILLION DOLLARS WHICH AFFECTS THE BOTTOM LINES OF THE OIL
COMPANIES.
THEREFORE MAY 19TH HAS BEEN FORMALLY DECLARED "STICK IT
UP THEIR BEHIND"
DAY AND THE PEOPLE OF THIS NATION SHOULD NOT BUY A SINGLE
DROP OF
GASOLINE THAT DAY. THE ONLY WAY THIS CAN BE DONE IS IF YOU
FORWARD THIS
E-MAIL TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN AND AS QUICKLY AS YOU CAN
TO GET THE
WORD OUT.
REMEMBER ONE THING, NOT ONLY IS THE PRICE OF GASOLINE GOING
UP BUT AT
THE SAME TIME AIRLINES ARE FORCED TO RAISE THEIR PRICES,
TRUCKING
&COMPANIES ARE FORCED TO RAISE THEIR PRICES WHICH EFFECTS
PRICES ON
EVERYTHING THAT IS SHIPPED. THINGS LIKE FOOD, CLOTHING,
BUILDING
MATERIALS, MEDICAL SUPPLIES ETC. WHO PAYS IN THE END? WE DO!
WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. IF THEY DON'T GET THE MESSAGE AFTER
ONE DAY,
WE WILL DO IT AGAIN AND AGAIN.
SO DO YOUR PART AND SPREAD THE WORD. FORWARD THIS EMAIL TO
EVERYONE YOU
KNOW. MARK YOUR CALENDARS AND MAKE MAY 19TH A DAY THAT THE
CITIZENS OF
THE UNITED STATES SAY "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH"

I think you hit the nail on the head here, many of our people in gov. are oil barrens or have stock in the business, so we can't look to them for help, but besides this gas boycot we need to put presure on 'em, i'm hearing $4.00 p.g this summer, and i believe it too...

I have relatives in europe they've been paying more then that for years now, they laugh when I told 'em how much we pay for petrol....

if people can really go through with this boycot, it will hurt, but the oil Co. knows we won't last for long with out fuel our need is too great!...

I'll fuel up on the 18th, the 19th and the 20th as well. What do you want to do, take it out on the fuel station owner? Who do you think is going to take the brunt of such a move as this? Maybe we should drill a few more wells, relax some environmental regulations and get some product on the market. News flash here guys, its not the oil companies fault. Talk to you politicians and get this crap straightened out.

Figure out a way to PERMANENTLY reduce your fuel usage and you will have an impact, skipping one day will do nothing but hurt the little guy.

Dakota, check out the other post. How do you recommend permanently reducing our fuel usage? Do you walk to work? Bet you don't use your vehicle to go hunting or on a daily basis. Kind of sounds to me like someone else pays for you to live.

Martin,

There are ways to conserve fuel, Beanman made references to them, also refernces to alternative fuel sources. Think about it, dont just complain about high prices, DO SOMETHING.
