Just got his in my email...forward it on if you can. Who knows...maybe it will work and we won't have to pay outrageous gas prices!
Having some control over gas prices...
I hear we are going to hit close to $1.00 a litre by the summer. Want
gasoline prices to come down? We need to take some intelligent, united
action. 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! 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 priced at about 69.9 cents a litre
is super cheap. Me too! It is currently 76.9 for regular unleaded in my
town. Now that the oil companies and the OPEC nations have conditioned us
to
think that the cost of a Litre of gas is CHEAP at 69.9, 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 PETRO CANADA & SHELL). 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 Shell and Petro Canada 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 about thirty people. If each of you sends 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. 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 AND KEEP THEM DOWN.
THIS CAN REALLY WORK.
YOU KNOW THEY LOVE HOLIDAYS AND SUMMER TRAVELERS.

Nice idea but it would never work.

how come americans call petrol gas when it's a liquid?
an 'elevator' is more descriptive than a 'lift' though so I'll give you that, it should be a 'lifter' at least.
- josimar0
hey jnr_m, your site's getting closer, how exciting! the plant died I presume.
- Jnr_Madison0
I killed the plant with my bare hands, Josi.
I'm mad that way.

'gas' prices are so low in the US you shouldn't even be moaning, hence the reason why you all chug around in these ridiculous size gas guzzlers and never walk anywhere, what you should be emailing people is information about driving more economic, environmentaly friendly cars.

gas would be short for gasoline, which is what petrol is.

Come over too the UK and then talk to us about Gas prices.
You people are getting a good deal.
- kinetic0
maybe so..but id still rather it be less.
and yea..i know this kind of thing would be hard to do because its hard getting a bunch of people all to do the same thing.
people are just too stupid.
