HOW TO DROP GAS PRICES---PLEASE KEEP THIS GOING-IT'LL MAKE ANIMPACT!!!
> Dropping Gas prices
>
> 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 gasprices
> going up AND they will continue to rise this summer, take time to readthis
> please.
>
> Phillip Hollsworth offered this good idea.
> This makes MUCH MORE SENSE than the 'don't buy gas on a certainday'
> 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 $4.29 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 $3.29 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.
>
> 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 (300x10
> = 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 todo
> 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 THIS CAN REALLY WORK.
> Keep it going
