If you really want to make a difference, switch to an alternate method of transportation, like a hybrid car, bicycle, or even good ol' footpower.
And naw, I'm not bitter or trying to poke fun at Jorath or anyone else who's responded. It's a noble idea, based on the boycotts of the 60s. The difference between those boycotts and not buying gas for a day is that they actually went without it...

Well, that is my feeling too actually, I just posted this to see how people here liked the idea. My feeling is people will not care, just buy gas the day before.
By the way I work in a gasstation parttime and don't have a car... so I'm kind of on both sides [img]smile.gif[/img]
