Want gasoline prices to come down?  We need to take some intelligent, united
action. 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 pricedat about $1.50 is super cheap.
Me too!  It is currently $1.97 for regular unleaded in my town. Now that the
oil companiesand 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!!

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.  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 mathmetician.  But I am...so trust me on
this one.)

How long would all that take?  If each of us sends this email 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.

PLEASE HOLD OUT UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO THE $1.30 RANGE AND KEEP
THEM DOWN. THIS CAN REALLY WORK.
