     GASOLINE SOLUTION!

     We CAN buy gasoline that's not from Middle East.
     Why didn't George W. think of this? Gas rationing in
     the 80's worked even though we grumbled about it.
     It might even be good for us!

     The Saudis are boycotting American goods. We should
     return the favor. An interesting thought is to
     boycott their GAS. Every time you fill up the car,
    you can avoid putting more money into the coffers of
     Saudi Arabia. Just buy from gas companies that don't
     import their oil from the Saudis.

     Nothing is more frustrating than the feeling that
     every time I fill-up the tank, I am sending my money
     to people who are trying to kill me, my family, and
     my friends.

     I thought it might be interesting for you to know
     which oil companies are the best
    to buy gas from and which major companies import
     Middle Eastern oil   
                                                                    
    Shell............................205,742,000 barrels
    Chevron/Texaco.............144,332,000 barrels
     Exxon /Mobil.................130,082,000 barrels
     Marathon/Speedway......117,740,000 barrels
     Amoco...........................62,231,000 barrels

     If you do the math at $30/barrel, these imports
    amount to over $18 BILLION!

     Here are some large companies that do not import
    Middle Eastern oil:

     Citgo....................0 barrels
    Sunoco............. ..0 barrels
    Conoco............. ..0 barrels
    Sinclair............... 0 barrels
    BP/Phillips.......... 0 barrels
     Hess...................0 barrels

     All of this information is available from the
     Department of Energy and each is required to state
     where they get their oil and how much they are
     importing.They report on a monthly basis. Keep this
     list in your car; share it with friends. Stop paying
    for terrorism.............

     But to have an impact, we need to reach literally
     millions of 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'm sending this note to about thirty people. If
     each of you send 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 generation 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.
     How much would all that take? If each of us sends
     this e-mail out to ten more people within one day
     300 MILLION people could conceivably be contacted
     within the next eight days!
