30c a gallon drop in April 1997? Yeah, right. Statistics without support. Anyway, among the dumbest ideas known to man this has to be right up there! Credit where credit is due though. It's not your idea. You just snatched it from someplace else and cut/pasted it here without attribution and took the credit. So, I guess that means your only a plagiariser and a fool, not the maker of foolish notions. <email_me@mts.net> wrote in message news:2gdn339rthpnreab52vhkvarh5bj0rcnjq@4ax.com... > NO GAS...On May 15th, 2007 > > > ...in April 1997, there was a "gas out" conducted nationwide in > protest of gas prices.
