bicycle....

Indiana, USA

May 11 $3.21
12 $3.12
13 $3.08 Mothers Day
14 $3.28

22 $3.59

I have a theory. It seems that around any big holidays or three day
weekends that the price goes down, just prior to.

I'm thinking we'll see, in the US, a small drop, just before Memorial
Day.

$3.25& up in Alabama.

Fuel costs went up before our long weekend last week and again yesterday
in my part of the world ... the past two days fuel costs are just under
$1.29/litre which translates to $4.88 per US gallon.

This is obscene - particularly for a country with good supplies of it in
the ground...

$3.06 in Oklah-friggin-homa...land of the petro-pumps and refineries.

I'm seriously thinking of trading my Jeep in for a scooter...

Hmm, sounds like a good exchange program, (pharmaceutical) drugs for
petrol.

bicycle !


or random community boycotts...imagine ..all over the country whenever
you WOULD

omg!i just checked it here...heh heh

$6.48 USD per gallon


yep.... bikes

up again in wisconsin..now $3.35 ....

gone up everyday for the last 7 days...

$4.88 AU, a gallon here as well.....$1.29 AU a litre... the pushbike
cost $250....7 years ago, and has done maybe 30 000 kms, and two
tyres...and still free wheels everywhere I go.

4 gallons now lasts me a week, maybe two, if I share drive with a
friend.

unfortunately here probably 90% commute 20 miles or more to work...
the american dream

So do I, davinci...so do I...I work in a shire that encompasses about
300 miles of road, ( I don't have to drive that distance every
day)...but by having a small four cylinder, and a friend with the
same..we double up, take turns with using our cars.

My nearest hospital is a 200 mile round trip...dentists, doctors, to buy
shoes...clothes...all of it..and still I manage to share drive, and take
turns burning fuel..and I ride my pushbike up to 30 kms a day, if I need
to..about 20 miles?

high as a giraffes coochie i tellya!!! I watched gas soar from $2.69 a
gallon to $3.18 overnight here in hillbilly hell...
funny...school is out for summer break starting when?? TODAY.

DaVinci---$3.45 in central Wisconsin, the northwoods and Fox Valley..

3.19 here in BAngor and they say by summer it will be over 4.00

This was originally sent by a retired Coca Cola executive. It came from
one of his engineer buddies who retired from Halliburton. It's worth
your consideration.

Join the resistance!!!! I hear we are going to hit close to $4.00 a
gallon by next summer and it might go higher!! 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 on and join with us! By now you're probably thinking
gasoline
priced at about $1.50 is super cheap. Me too! It is currently $2.94
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 gallon of gas is
CHEAP at $1.50 - $1.75, 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, DO NOT purchase ANY gasoline from the two
biggest companies (which now are the same company), EXXON and MOBIL. 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 Exxon and
Mobil gas buyers. It's really simple to do! Now, don't wimp out at this
point.... keep reading and I'll explain how simple it is to reach
millions
of people.

I am sending this note to 30 people. If each of us 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
group 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. (If
you
don't understand how we can reach 300 million and all you have to do is
send this to 10 people.... Well, let's face it, you just aren't a
mathematician. But I am, so trust me on this one.)

How long would all that take? If each of us sends this e-mail 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. I suggest that we not buy from EXXON/MOBIL
UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO THE $1.30 RANGE AND KEEP THEM DOWN.

THIS CAN REALLY WORK.

I listened to an interview with an oil company whistle blower a couple
weeks ago
...he gave a breakdown of the cost of a barrel of oil and who gets
profits before
it even gets to the local stations..according to him the first to take
the biggest
chunk off the barrel is the IMF...so the international bankers are
raking in huge
$$...and then we applaud when they excuse 3rd world debt...but we need
to realize
that when they do that they are making their money back from the largest
consumers
of oil...us....what a racket...
I'll try to find the links to this...
