Subject: $1.30 gallon for gas (NOEXXON/MOBILE)
                                                                           
    THIS IS NOT THE 'DON'T BUY' GAS FOR ONE DAY, BUT
IT     WILL SHOW YOU  
 HOW WE CAN GET GAS BACK DOWN TO     $1.30 PER
GALLON.                     
                                                                           
 This was sent by a retired Coca Cola executive.  It came from one
of his  
 engineer buddies who retired from Halliburton.  If you are tired of
the   
 gas prices going up AND they will continue to rise this summer, take
time 
 to read this
please.                                                      
                                                                          
 
 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!                         
 It's worth your consideration.  Join the
resistance!!!!                   
                                                                           
 I hear we are going to hit close to $ 4.00 a gallon by next summer
and it 
 might go higher!!  Want gasoline prices to come
down?                     
                                                                           
 We need to take some intelligent, united action.  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 on and join with
us!                            
                                                                           
 By now you're probably thinking gasoline priced at about $2.00 is
super   
 cheap.  Me too!  It is currently $2.98 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 wimp 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 30 people.  If each of us 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 
 group 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.  That's
all!         
                                                                           
 (If you don't understand how we can reach 300 million and all you
have to 
 do is send this to 10 people....  Well, let's face it, you just
aren't a  
 mathematician.  But I am .  so trust me on this
one.                      
                                                                           
 How long would all that take?  If each of us sends this e-mail out
 to ten more people within one day of receipt, all 300 MILLION people
could
 conceivably be contacted within the next 8
days!!!                        
                                                                           
 I'll bet you didn't think you and I had that much potential, did
you!     
 Acting together we can make a
difference.                                 
                                                                           
 If this makes sense to you, please pass this message on.  I suggest
that  
 we not buy from EXXON/MOBIL UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO THE
$2.00    
 RANGE AND KEEP THEM DOWN.  THIS CAN REALLY
WORK.                          
                        
                                                   
                                                                           
                                 
Keep it
going
