I saw an event on facebook that is trying to organize a protest that said not to pump gas on May 15 to see the effect it may have. It worked once before in 1997. Might as well give it a shot again.

I got the e-mail about this the other day.... I know we basically live in a small community BUT.... put Pike, Floyd, Magoffin, Martin, etc together and if there were NO gas pumped on May 15th... this maybe could impact the gas prices in our area!! I saw as well on a site that the gas prices (barrel) are actually DOWN from last year.... seems like it said that last year it was like $89.00 at this time but is now only $65.00!!! Last year we were only paying like $2.19 and maybe a little higher! I saw tonight that it is expected to be over $4.00 a gallon by July 4th!!

This is an outrage for all of us especially the elderly on a fixed income who have Dr. appts. My grandmother only drew a little over $600.00 a month and there is NO way she could have afforded this! Maybe a "gas out" may be a way to make a statement!!!
