Does Exxon or Mobil control any other brand names of gasoline?  I don't remember seeing them around the San Francisco area and they have no listings for staations in the phone book
like Shell, Chevron, Etc.  Also, do they have affilliated brands in foreign countries?  Ed

Subject: Gas Prices
   
Join the resistance!!!! 

I hear we are going to hit close to $3.00 a gallon by the summer. Want 
gasoline prices to come down? We need to take some intelligent, united 
action. Phillip Hollsworth, offered this good idea: This makes MUCH MORE 
SENSE than the "don't buy gas on a certain day" campaign that was going 
around last April or May! The oil companies just laughed at that because 
they knew we wouldn't continue to "hurt" ourselves by refusing to buy gas. 
It was more of an inconvenience to us than it was a problem for them. 
BUT, whoever thought of this idea, has come up with a plan that can really 
work. 

Please read it and join with us! 

By now you're probably thinking gasoline priced at about $1.50 is super 
cheap. Me too! It is currently $1.97 for regular unleaded in my town. 
Now that the oil companies and the OPEC nations have conditioned us to 
think that the cost of a gallon of gas is CHEAP at $1.50- $1.75, we need 
to take aggressive action to teach them that BUYERS control the 
marketplace....not sellers. With the price of gasoline going up more each 
day, we consumers need to take action. The only way we are going to see 
the price of gas come down is if we hit someone in the pocketbook by not 
purchasing their gas! 

And, we can do that WITHOUT hurting ourselves. How? Since we all rely on 
our cars, we can't just stop buying gas. But we CAN have an impact on gas 
prices if we all act together to force a price war. 

Here! 's the idea: For the rest of this year, DON'T purchase ANY gasoline 
from the two biggest companies (which now are one), EXXON, and MOBIL.   If 
they are not selling any gas, they will be inclined to reduce their prices. If 
they reduce their prices, the other companies will have to follow suit. 
But to have an impact, we need to reach literally millions of Exxon and Mobil gas 
buyers. 

It's really simple to do!! Now, don't whimp out on me at this point...keep 
reading and I'll explain how simple it is to reach millions of people!! 

I am 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!!! 

How long would all that take? If each of us sends this email out to ten 
more people within one day of receipt, all 300 MILLION people could 
conceivably be contacted within the next 8 days!!! Acting together we can 
make a difference. 

If this makes sense to you, please pass this message on. PLEASE HOLD OUT 
UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO THE $1.30 RANGE AND KEEP THEM DOWN.  THIS CAN REALLY WORK.
