I posted a response to this once, but it's clearly a lost cause. "Oh, I have an idea. Lets not get gas on the 15th. That will show them." Yeah, that's great. Brilliant idea there. Here's a concept: They (gas companies) don't give a shit if you buy gas on the 15th or not. They know that you will be driving your ass up to the gas station the following day because you need a fill up after stretching it beyond the 15th. Therefore, you've shifted demand from one day to the next. The only way to reduce gas prices it to reduce gas usage. Avoiding a fill up one day a year does nothing. I'd love to see them raise gas prices a dollar on the 16th just to screw with all you people that didn't get gas on the 15th.
