Gas prices!!! Getting out of hand, read this e-mail I got & pass on
I don't know about you but I am sick & tired of the gas prices. In my line of work I can't avoid or decrese my fuel requirements but I know I will be taking steps to not waste fuel ether.
I received this e-mail and I must say it does make some sense.
Worth Considering..........

THIS IS NOT THE 'DON'T BUY' GAS FOR ONE DAY, BUT IT WILL SHOW YOU HOW WE CAN
GET GAS BACK DOWN TO $1.00 PER LITRE.
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 $ 1.50 a litre by this 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 $.99 is super
cheap. Me too! It is currently $1.29 at SUNOCO and ESSO for regular
unleaded in Hamilton and Ottawa and climbing every week.
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 $.87 to .99, 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), SUNOCO(PETRO CANADA )
and ESSO.
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 SUNOCO(PETRO
CANADA ) and ESSO 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 SUNOCO(PETRO CANADA )/ESSO UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO
THE $.79 RANGE AND KEEP THEM DOWN. It can work.
