There is anation wide boy-cot on the OIL COMPANIES. Im sure at least a few of you have recevied a txt or email concerning this. It's real!! DO NOT BUY GAS MAY 15th. word around the campfire is if no-one bought gas for one day, just one day the oil companies stand to lose billions in profit... Lets stick to the man, as they say.

Tell everyone you know. Get your gas before the 15th..

 

That's ridiculous. If they lose billions one day, they will make it up the next.

 

It make the 'goo-goos' feel good, but it never works. If you want to do something positive, tell your congressman and senators to ok drilling in ANWAR.

Actually it has in the past. This same thing was done once before and gas prices the next day dropped dramatically.

Everyone is just going to get gas on the 14th or the 16th instead so it's not going to do anything.

I think I'll actually buy a full tank of gas on the 15th.

 

Great idea, the lines will be shorter.

Fuel gets shipped daily. What happens when you still have fuel tankers still delivering, yet nowhere to put it?

 

Guess we learn somthin new everyday. i just hate it when i look stupid while learning[:@]

maybe i'll just go chain myself to an oil rig[8D]

 

this is stupid...it isnt going to bother the companies, the only thing its going to hurt are the gas stations. the oil companies have already sold their productto the stations so it wont hurt them if no one buys gas for a day. for a month, yes...a day, NO.


Edit: just read the article from snopes.com and realized that i just said the same thing...oops
