==============================================


This is ALMOST as stupid as the "don't buy gas for a
day"  idea.  Does anyone 
REALLY think this will hurt EXXONMOBIL (yep, that's 
right, they're one 
company and have been ever since they merged over 5
years  ago!!).  The answer here 
is that you will hurt the individual retailers who 
own ExxonMobil 
stations/convience stores since XOM (ExxonMobil's
stock symbol)  will sell their surplus 
to the companies that suddenly have a shortage (gee 
wonder why that is).  
The overall effect will be to put the mom's and pop's 
stores outta the 
business, thereby giving us fewer choices on where to
buy gas  and giving those still 
in business more pricing power.
 
If you really want to change things then you need to
change the  fuel your 
vehicle runs on.... i.e.- bio-diesel, hybrids, etc. 
But this  idea is just 
stupid garbage put out by stupid people for stupid  people.
