GAS PRICES.

Do you remember how most of us felt when the price of gas reached 1.00? People were outraged and thought...how can this be? This is robbery...In time we became acclaminated to the price being *so high*...

Now that gas is 2.00 plus, are we over the shock and will become used to this also?

This morning on MSNBC, there was a report that gas prices will continue to rise due to the threat of terrorism and the possible gas shortages due to summer demand in the US...It must be that we did not have a *summer demand* last year...

i was up near alpena this past weekend and gas was $2.16 for reg. ouch. if it keeps up this way, we wont need an early season, no one will be able to afford filling the boat up anyway.

anybody else doing the May 19 "gas boycott"?
i keep getting the e-mail to pass on, i'm doing it

I saw that gas boycott email a couple years ago when it got very bad. I do not believe it will work. You cannot do any damage by not buying gas for a day. If nobody buys today, they will the next day, or within a few days. Let's face it. We need gas. I saw another email come out about a year ago, which is more sensible. Target specific stations that belong to one oil company. For example. Exxon-Mobil. I cannot remember all the stations belonging to them, but it is online. Stop buying from these stations for an extended period of time (like a month) and that will do some damage. You can buy from stations belonging to a different company. Then switch. This way, we can hurt one company at a time, and still get gas. If we could get enough people to do this, I think it might work
