Dear Richard (and the Group),

The only message a one day deferral of gas-buying would send is that the
American public is as dumb as a stump.

If you want your message to appear in the bottom line of a corporation you
must
boycot their product, as gun owners did with Smith & Wesson. To simply
defer
your purchase is the sort of meaningless feel-good bull**** they feed to
college kids to keep them from burning down the school.

As a point of historical interest there has been at least a dozen such
idiot
plans to "send a message" to the oil companies, dating back to the Arab
oil
embargo following the 1973 'Yom Kipper' war. It doesn't take a rocket
scientist to see how ineffective they have been.

--------------------------------------------

Want to send a REAL message?

Imagine what would happen if EVERYONE in the nation stayed home for a day.
Don't go ANYWHERE. Don't buy ANYTHING. Don't even turn on the TV.
Freeways
completely empty of vehicles. Public buildings with their doors locked
and
parking lots empty. Sporting events not being played in an empty, echoing
stadium.

Never happen of course, for the simple reason that such an expression of
your
individual freedom just happens to be illegal for most of us 'free'
citizens of
the United States of America.

Better to play it safe. So go ahead and defer your purchase of gas for a
day.
Or fill up the day before. Really show those oil companies who's the
boss.
Yeah... that should do it.
