The 15th of each month seems to be a hot date for some reason...MMMMMM

Who would contact all these people each month to let them know which ones to avoid or boycott?

Boycott the Gas Stations that are owned by the ones who have negativity towards our country...all of them! That might make a bigger dent and still be conservative.

It's a good idea to try and conserve. If everyone did at least one thing a week every week, like car pool or not hopping in the car to run down to the 7-11 for a slushy every time you get the erg. Gas is essential and we can't do without it, we have to have it, we don't have to have bottled water we can get it out of the spigot. Also, trade in the big gas hogs for a more gas efficient vehicle, especially is you run around a lot. Maybe if everybody did that, it would send a message to the car makers and they would make a car that needs no gas to run. Or maybe they already have one and are waiting for the right moment to pull it out. I still like the word boycott, makes me feel like I'm doing something along with the rest of America.

And one more problem with this idea, as you rotate thru each comp. they will see the drop in sales and sell to other countried what we don't use. So it's really a no win cituation unless the Fed. and state tax per gallon was drastically reduced.

IT won't work because people are apathetic about it. Nobody really cares enough to really DO anything about it.

Pattie, if you drive with the windows down or if you use the AC, it's all the same. With the AC on, you're more aerodynamic, with the windows down, there is more resistance with the outside air and the engine uses more gas. What really kills you is when you drive with the AC On and the windows down.

This state gets to unbearable with the heat so logically use your AC...it does use more gas using it but it's cheaper then risking an accident or hospital and doctor bills over getting over heated! On the cooler days or mornings crack your windows if they have the wind guard, if it's a four door then crack the back windows a little more then the front ones.

First, like the comment says above, we take up about 30% consumption of oil... so you really would need other big countries to take part in this, and I wish you luck with that!
It's all a waste of time, and if you really want to see lower prices I have a much better and easy solution USE LESS OIL and no it's not a hard thing to do, however we are talking about a country who cannot control it's eating habits (eating to much) not saying that's everyone however its a strong percentage, so to say use less oil is like telling them to eat less.
