Have you seen the email circulating around the internet urging internet users to not buy gas on 5-15-07. Here is how it reads:
Don't pump gas on may 15th
In April 1997, there was a "gas out" conducted nationwide in
protest of gas prices. Gasoline prices dropped 30 cents a gallon overnight. On May 15th 2007, all internet users are to not go to a gas station in protest of high gas prices. Gas is now over $3.00 a gallon in most places. There are 73,000,000+ American members currently on the internet
network, and the average car takes about 30 to 50 dollars to fill up.
If all users did not go to the pump on the 15th, it would take $2,292,000,000.00 (that's almost 3 BILLION) out of the oil companies pockets for just one day, so please do not go to the gas station on May 15th and lets try to put a dent in the Middle Eastern oil industry for at least one day. If you agree resend this to all your contact list. With it saying, Don't pump gas on May 15th
Gas prices have topped $3.00 per gallon in most parts of the country, but do you really think not buying gas for one day will lower gas prices. What about those that will have to buy extra gas the day before to compensate for the day without gas? Maybe we should tell everyone to stay home on that day, a National Holiday! I think we are on to something now.Source URL: http://ashesgarrett.blogspot.com/2007/05/high-gas-prices-5-15-07-gas-station-ban.html
