Hey Guys,
Please read the following...for those of you (like me) who absolutely LOATHE
forwards, trust me, this one is a good one. I personally, cannot stand nor
afford to pay gas prices as they are now, and I think that if enough people
do what this email suggests, then we stand a chance at getting the prices
regulated back down to something that makes economic sense for all of us who
drive. If you don't drive, tell someone who does!
Thanks.

ANOTHER ECONOMICS PROFESSOR AT CAL REITERATED THE SAME LAST WEEK. I THINK IT IS WORTH TRYING. I got this from a reliable source & the website listed is legit. We heard today from a man who is very savvy about the economy, namely, Clark Howard, and he says that the gas prices are going to start going up again and will be high this summer-$3 and up. We need to do whatever we can,and do it NOW!!!! Gasoline Prices This makes more sense than the don't buy gas on a certain day routine. Here's the idea: For the rest of this year, don't purchase gasoline from the two biggest companies (which now are one), namely EXXON and MOBIL. You see, if they are not selling, they should be inclined, (i.e.,"forced"), to reduce their prices. And, because of their size, and hence market share, if they reduce their prices the other companies will too. (They would HAVE no choice!). Isn't that a "juicy" prospect? But to have an impact, we need to reach literally millions of users. But it's doable!
I am sending this note to 42 people.
If each of you send it to at least 10 more ...and those 10 send it to at least 10 more and so on, by the time the message reaches the sixth iteration, we will have reached over one million consumers. Acting together we can make a difference. If this makes sense to you, please pass this message on, or one you compose, to at least 10 more E-mail addresses.
PLEASE HOLD OUT UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO BELOW $1.28 - $1.29 AND KEEP THEM DOWN. THIS CAN REALLY WORK! If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention **********************************************************************
