Has anyone heard about the gas boycott on 05/15/2007? I heard from a friend of mine and it is being asked that people do not pump gas on that day. In 1997 there was a similar gas-out and overnight the price of gas fell 30 cents a gallon. If all the people on the internet went along with this gas-out, the gas companies would stand to lose almost THREE BILLION dollars for that 1 day. I am passing it on because I, for one, would like to see a reduction in the prices.

BOYCOTT!! I think she is a media hound (nicer word than what I really think) sm
and we should not dignify what she has done by giving her one iota of attention. And any station that decides to give her a "show" (like Jon&Kate plus 8 or that Duggars Giant humongous family - disgusting) should be absolutely boycotted and all their sponsors too. Promoting this stuff is just WRONG.
