US GASOLINE PRICES

This makes more sense than the "don't buy gas on a certain day" routine that 
was going around in April or May. Whoever started this has a good point.

By now you're probably thinking gasoline priced at about $1.49 is cheap. Me 
too! As it is now $1.58 for regular unleaded. Now that the oil companies and 
the OPEC nations have conditioned us to think that the cost of a gallon of 
gas is CHEAP at less than $1.50, we need to try an aggressive response.

With the price of gasoline going up more each day, we consumers need to take 
action. The only way we are going to see the price of gas come down is if we 
don't buy it. But, that's not really a practical option since

we all have come to rely on our cars. But we CAN have an impact on gas 
prices if we all act together.

********** Here's the idea **********

For the rest of this year, don't purchase gasoline from the two biggest 
companies (which now are one), EXXON and MOBIL. If they are not selling, 
they should be inclined to reduce their prices - and if they reduce their 
prices the other companies will too.

But to have an impact, we need to reach literally millions of users. But it 
IS... do-able!

**********
I am sending this note to 28 people. If each of you send it to at least 10 
more ...and those 10 send it to at least 10 more ... and so on by the time 
the message reaches the sixth iteration we will have reached over one 
million consumers. Acting together we can make a difference. If this makes 
sense to you, please pass this message on, or one you compose, to at least 
10 more E-mail addresses.

PLEASE HOLD OUT UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO $1.28 - $1.29 AND KEEP THEM 
DOWN.
THIS CAN REALLY WORK.
