RE: Gas Out April 30, 1999
facts:
1) the usa has the cheapest gas in the western world.
2) the usa is populated mostly by gas guzzling suv bemouths (latest sales
figures)
3) these vehicles are responsible for a number of social consequences,
including the deaths of other motorists, damage to the environment,
excessive use of jungle juice, as well as looking goddamn awful
go figure....
speaking of dumb, call it a knee-jerk instinct, based on a pavlovian
instinct developed over the years, but i've become pretty sceptical about
any new measure introduced on the 1st april.
still, you go right ahead...

You're just numb from the unmerciful beating you folks have been taking
for years.
If they (oil companies) just cut the BS, the screwing they give us would
be marginally more acceptable. It's one thing to be "taken", it's
another when they assume us to be dumber than dirt.
