> THIS IS NOT THE 'DON'T BUY' GAS FOR ONE DAY, BUT IT WILL SHOW YOU HOW

> This was sent by a retired Coca Cola executive. It came from one of his

> 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'
> It's worth your consider ation. Join the resistance!!!!
>
> I hear we are going to hit close to $ 4.00 a gallon by 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 proble m 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!
>
> 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.
>
> 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 x10 = 3,000)...and so on, by the time the message reaches the sixth
> gro up 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 th is 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
