Its that time of year again!!! Really annoying forwards from your friends asking you to partake in things.

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 (which I cant see why you wouldn’t) resend this to all your contact list. With it saying, ”Don’t pump gas on May 15th

What really grills me about this petition is ok, lets say for instance all of these people don’t pump gas on the 15th, has anyone really gone out of their way to drive less? If you don’t fill up on the 15th it will be a day or so afterwards.

The same gas is being consumed. The real issue here is gas consumption; not which day you pay for it.

If someone really wanted to start a petition, why not grow some balls and ask people to STOP USING GAS forever?

Do that on the 15th….. jack ass.
