    some guy in our company forwarded this message to me. i just want to see what the guys in tsikot think of the idea. read on



    Fw: Gas * P30 per liter

    THIS IS NOT THE 'DON'T BUY' GAS FOR ONE DAY, BUT IT WILL SHOW YOU
    HOW WE CAN GET GAS BACK DOWN TO P30.00 PER LITER.

    This was sent by a retired Coca Cola executive. It came from one of his

    engineer buddies who retired from Halliburton. If you are tired of the
    gas prices going up AND they will continue to rise this summer, take
    time to read this please.

    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!
    It's worth your consideration. Join the resistance!! !!

    I hear we are going to hit close to P60.00 a LITER by next summer and it

    might go higher!! Want gasoline prices to come down?

    We need to take some intelligent, united action. 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 on and join with us!

    By now you're probably thinking gasoline priced at about P30.00 is super

    cheap. Me too! It is currently P45.00/liter 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 P30 - P35/liter, 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** SHELL** and **CALTEX.**

    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 SHELL and
    CALTEX gas buyers. It's really simple to do! Now, don't wimp 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 30 people. If each of us 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 group 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. That's all!

    (If you don't understand how we can reach 300 million and all you have
    to do is send this to 10 people....&n bsp; Well, let's face it, you just

    aren't a mathematician. But I am . so trust me on this one.

    How long would all that take? If each of us sends this e-mail out to
    ten more people within one day of receipt, all 300 MILLION people could
    conceivably be contacted within the next 8 days!!!

    I'll bet you didn't think you and I had that much potential, did you!
    Acting together we can make a difference.
    **
    REMEMBER: If this makes sense to you, please pass this message on. I
    suggest that we not buy from **SHELL/CALTEX** UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR
    PRICES TO THE P30.00 RANGE AND KEEP THEM DOWN. THIS CAN REALLY WORK.*

    *Keep it going*

    tataas din yan kapag in demand na ang LPG sa cars.

    okay lang yung message posted by the TS. For me, I use Petron, so tumulong na rin ako somehow. so 2,999,999 left na lang. hehehhe

    So... why just SHELL and CALTEX? Why not SHELL, CALTEX and PETRON?

    The mail itself is idiotic. Want to hit them in the pocketbook? Buy LPG.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    good point, but not idiotic. its hard to hit them by buying LPG, not a lot of private vehicles invest on that.

    Not a bad idea. May be a spam in favor of Petron, but I look at it more as a crusade. Just my thought.

    It is a good idea for petron share holders, ingat kayo baka para sa stock market lang yan.

    Papirmahin nyo muna author bago kayo sumunod. Just my 2 pera.

    Mathematician daw sya, aba loko ano akala nya magaling sya sa math.

    Dapat nag Lpg na sya para naayos nya math nya. Better still nag wood gas sya.

    Kahit bumili lahat nga sasakyan sa US sa isang dealer ng fuel kulang pa rin sa 300m na target nya.

    would you really trust his math?
