NO GAS...On May 15th, 2007 


...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 asked not to go to a gas
station in protest of high gas prices. Gas is now over $4.00 a gallon
in most places.

   There are 73,000,000 persons  currently on the internet, 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 companys
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.
