I got this in a e-mail...............

Screw Exxon and Mobil...I'll go elsewhere.


We are going to hit close to $3.00 a gallon by the summer. Want gasoline
prices to come down? We need to take some intelligent, united action.

Phillip Hollsworth, offered this good idea:
This makes MUCH MORE SENSE than the "don't buy gas on a certain day"
campaign that was going around last April or May!


The oil companies just laughed at that because they knew we wouldn't
continue to "hurt" ourselves by refusing to buy gas. It was more of an
inconvenience to us than it was a problem for them. BUT, whoever thought of
this idea, has come up with a plan that can really work.


Please read it and join with us!


By now you're probably thinking gasoline priced at about $1.50 is
super cheap. Me too! It is currently $2.75 for regular unleaded in my town.


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 $1.50-$1.75, we need to
take aggressive action to teach them that BUYERS control the
marketplace.... not sellers.


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 hit someone in the pocketbook by not purchasing their gas!


And we can do that WITHOUT hurting ourselves.


How? Since we all rely on our cars, we can't just stop buying gas. But
we CAN have an impact on gas prices if we all act together to force a price
war.


Here's the idea:


For the rest of this year, DON"T purchase ANY gasoline from the two
biggest companies (which now are one), EXXON and MOBIL. If they are not
selling any gas, they will be inclined to reduce their prices. If they
reduce their prices, the other companies will have to follow suit.


But to have an impact, we need to reach literally millions of Exxon
and Mobil gas buyers. It's really simple to do!! Now, don't whimp (sic) out
on me at this point... keep reading and I'll explain how simple it is to
reach millions of people!!


I am sending this note to about thirty people. If each of you send it
to at least ten more (30 x 10 = 300)... and those 300 send it to at least
ten more (300 x 10 = 3,000) ... and so on, by the time the message reaches
the sixth generation of people, we will have reached over THREE MILLION
consumers!


If those three million get excited and pass this on to ten friends
each, then 30 million people will have been contacted! If it goes one level
further, you guessed it..... THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!! Again, all you
have to do is send this to 10 people and DON"T purchase ANY gas from Exxon and Mobile.

Please let's unite for this cause...

At work they told us to expect up to $5 a gallon by summer time for 91, they are hopping it will start going down once the 2 oil refineries in the New Orleans area that went off line because of the storms. There looking at late next month but never expect it to see it in the $1 range ever again.


if this is correct or not who knows, there are 100 rumors going around and e-mails to boycott gas stations but the fact it no mater what its not going to change our greedy GOV!

Yeah that would never work because the oil refineries don't just own one gas station name they own many.
