What follows is a post from a MySpace post I saw regarding the May 15 Gas Price Strike movement. Ignore any grammatical errors, they're not mine.

What comes at the end of the post is my thoughts on it, which could certainly do quite a bit to be far more effective and helpful to everyday people and their communities ...

The big "or" follows ...

Don't pump gas on may 15th

In April 1997, there was a "gas out" conducted nationwide in protest of gas prices.
Gasoline prices dropped 30 cents a gallon overnight.

On May 15th 2007, all myspace members are asked to not go to a gas station in protest of
high gas prices. Gas is now over $3.00 a gallon in most places.

There are 73,000,000+ American members currently on the myspace network, and the
average car takes about 20 to 30 dollars to fill up.

If all myspace members did not go to the pump on the 15th, it would take
$2,200,000,000.00 (that's BILLION) out of the oil companys pockets for just one day,
so please do not go to the gas station on May 15th and lets try to put a dent in the
Middle Eastern oil industry for at least one day.

If you agree (which I cant see why you wouldnt) repost this bulletin repost it with
'Don't pump gas on May 15th

OR

What if rather than just not pump for a day, which really doesn't accomplish all that much, everyone who could started to take the bus or train to work more often? What if those who couldn't use public transportation tried car pooling with co-workers?
